Alice and Bob play the following number-guessing game. Alice writes down a list of positive integers $x_{1}$, $\cdots$, $x_{n}$, but does not reveal them to Bob, who will try to determine the numbers by asking Alice questions. Bob chooses a list of positive integers $a_{1}$, $\cdots$, $a_{n}$ and asks Alice to tell him the value of $a_{1}x_{1}+\cdots+a_{n}x_{n}$. Then Bob chooses another list of positive integers $b_{1}$, $\cdots$, $b_{n}$ and asks Alice for $b_{1}x_{1}+\cdots+b_{n}x_{n}$. Play continues in this way until Bob is able to determine Alice's numbers. How many rounds will Bob need in order to determine Alice's numbers?

I couldn't solve this problem and the only solution I was able to find was very unnatural (it was an official solution, I think) and I couldn't be satisfied with it, so I ask you if you can find some different solutions. The problem is really great one! If $M$ is the centroid of a triangle $ABC$, prove that the following inequality holds: \[\sin\angle CAM+\sin\angle CBM\leq\frac{2}{\sqrt3}.\] The equality occurs in a very strange case, I don't remember it.

In cells of a $2022 \times 2022$ table numbers from $1$ to $2022^2$ are written, in each cell exactly one number, all numbers are used once. For every row Vlad marks the second biggest number in it, Dima does the same for every column. It turned out that boys marked $4044$ pairwise distinct numbers, and there are $k$ numbers marked by Vlad, each of which is less than all numbers marked by Dima. Find the maximum possible value of $k$

The numbers $1, 2, \ldots, n$ are written on a blackboard. Each minute, a student goes up to the board, chooses two numbers $x$ and $y$, erases them, and writes the number $2x+2y$ on the board. This continues until only one number remains. Prove that this number is at least $\frac{4}{9}n^3$. [i]Brian Hamrick.[/i]

Let $P$ be a point in the interior of an acute triangle $ABC$, and let $Q$ be its isogonal conjugate. Denote by $\omega_P$ and $\omega_Q$ the circumcircles of triangles $BPC$ and $BQC$, respectively. Suppose the circle with diameter $\overline{AP}$ intersects $\omega_P$ again at $M$, and line $AM$ intersects $\omega_P$ again at $X$. Similarly, suppose the circle with diameter $\overline{AQ}$ intersects $\omega_Q$ again at $N$, and line $AN$ intersects $\omega_Q$ again at $Y$. Prove that lines $MN$ and $XY$ are parallel. (Here, the points $P$ and $Q$ are [i]isogonal conjugates[/i] with respect to $\triangle ABC$ if the internal angle bisectors of $\angle BAC$, $\angle CBA$, and $\angle ACB$ also bisect the angles $\angle PAQ$, $\angle PBQ$, and $\angle PCQ$, respectively. For example, the orthocenter is the isogonal conjugate of the circumcenter.) [i]Proposed by Sammy Luo[/i]
