The [i]popularity [/i] of a positive integer $n$ is the number of positive integer divisors of $n$. For example, $1$ has popularity $1$, and $12$ has popularity $6$. For each number $n$ between $1$ and $30$ inclusive, Cathy writes the number $n$ on $k$ pieces of paper, where $k$ is the popularity of $n$. Cathy then picks a piece of paper at random. Compute the probability that she will pick an even integer.

Let $P(x)$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients. We will denote the set of all prime numbers by $\mathbb P$. Show that the set $\mathbb S := \{p\in\mathbb P : \exists\text{ }n \text{ s.t. }p\mid P(n)\}$ is finite if and only if $P(x)$ is a non-zero constant polynomial.

Let $ S$ be a set of rational numbers such that (a) $ 0\in S;$ (b) If $ x\in S$ then $ x\plus{}1\in S$ and $ x\minus{}1\in S;$ and (c) If $ x\in S$ and $ x\notin\{0,1\},$ then $ \frac{1}{x(x\minus{}1)}\in S.$ Must $ S$ contain all rational numbers?

Let there be a finite number of straight lines in the plane, none of which are three in one point to cut. Show that the intersections of these straight lines can be colored with $3$ colors so that that no two points of the same color are adjacent on any of the straight lines. (Two points of intersection are called [i]adjacent [/i] if they both lie on one of the finitely many straight lines and there is no other such intersection on their connecting line.)
