In a group of $n > 20$ people, there are some (at least one, and possibly all) pairs of people that know each other. Knowing is symmetric; if Alice knows Blaine, then Blaine also knows Alice. For some values of $n$ and $k,$ this group has a peculiar property: If any $20$ people are removed from the group, the number of pairs of people that know each other is at most $\frac{n-k}{n}$ times that of the original group of people. (a) If $k = 41,$ for what positive integers $n$ could such a group exist? (b) If $k = 39,$ for what positive integers $n$ could such a group exist?

At Rachelle's school an A counts 4 points, a B 3 points, a C 2 points, and a D 1 point. Her GPA on the four classes she is taking is computed as the total sum of points divided by $4$. She is certain that she will get As in both Mathematics and Science, and at least a C in each of English and History. She think she has a $\frac{1}{6}$ chance of getting an A in English, and a $\frac{1}{4}$ chance of getting a B. In History, she has a $\frac{1}{4}$ chance of getting an A, and a $\frac{1}{3}$ chance of getting a B, independently of what she gets in English. What is the probability that Rachelle will get a GPA of at least 3.5? $\textbf{(A) }\frac{11}{72}\qquad\textbf{(B) }\frac{1}{6}\qquad\textbf{(C) }\frac{3}{16}\qquad\textbf{(D) }\frac{11}{24}\qquad\textbf{(E) }\frac{1}{2}$

Let $n>5$ be an integer. There are $n$ points in the plane, no three of them collinear. Each day, Tom erases one of the points, until there are three points left. On the $i$-th day, for $1<i<n-3$, before erasing that day's point, Tom writes down the positive integer $v(i)$ such that the convex hull of the points at that moment has $v(i)$ vertices. Finally, he writes down $v(n-2) = 3$. Find the greatest possible value that the expression $$|v(1)-v(2)|+ |v(2)-v(3)| + \ldots + |v(n-3)-v(n-2)|$$ can obtain among all possible initial configurations of $n$ points and all possible Tom's moves. [i]Remark[/i]. A convex hull of a finite set of points in the plane is the smallest convex polygon containing all the points of the set (inside it or on the boundary). [i]Ivan Novak, Namik Agić[/i]

2013 Math Prize for Girls Olympiad, 3

$10000$ nonzero digits are written in a $100$-by-$100$ table, one digit per cell. From left to right, each row forms a $100$-digit integer. From top to bottom, each column forms a $100$-digit integer. So the rows and columns form $200$ integers (each with $100$ digits), not necessarily distinct. Prove that if at least $199$ of these $200$ numbers are divisible by $2013$, then all of them are divisible by $2013$.

An $8\times 8$ square board is divided into $64$ unit squares. A ’skew-diagonal’ of the board is a set of $8$ unit squares no two of which are in the same row or same column. Checkers are placed in some of the unit squares so that ’each skew-diagonal contains exactly two squares occupied by checkers’. Prove that there exist two rows or two columns which contain all the checkers.

Let two circles be externally tangent at point $C$, with parallel diameters $A_1A_2, B_1B_2$ (i.e. the quadrilateral $A_1B_1B_2A_2$ is a trapezoid with bases $A_1A_2$ and $B_1B_2$ or parallelogram). Circle with the center on the common internal tangent to these two circles, passes through the intersection point of lines $A_1B_2$ and $A_2B_1$ as well intersects those lines at points $M, N$. Prove that the line $MN$ is perpendicular to the parallel diameters $A_1A_2, B_1B_2$. (Yuri Biletsky)
