In a lottery there are $14$ balls, numbered from $1$ to $14$. Four of these balls are drawn at random. D'Angelo wins the lottery if he can split the four balls into two disjoint pairs, where the two balls in each pair have difference at least $5$. The probability that D'Angelo wins the lottery can be expressed as $\frac{m}{n}$, with $m,n$ relatively prime. Find $m+n$.

Find all sequences $a_{0}, a_{1},\ldots, a_{n}$ of real numbers such that $a_{n}\neq 0$, for which the following statement is true:
If $f: \mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is an $n$ times differentiable function
and $x_{0}<x_{1}<\ldots <x_{n}$ are real numbers such that
$f(x_{0})=f(x_{1})=\ldots =f(x_{n})=0$ then there is $h\in (x_{0}, x_{n})$ for which \[a_{0}f(h)+a_{1}f'(h)+\ldots+a_{n}f^{(n)}(h)=0.\]

Let $I$ and $J$ be intervals. Let $\varphi,\psi:I\to\mathbb{R}$ be strictly increasing continuous functions and let $\Phi,\Psi:J\to\mathbb{R}$ be continuous functions. Suppose that $\varphi(x)+\psi(x)=x$ and $\Phi(u)+\Psi(u)=u$ holds for all $x\in I$ and $u\in J$. Show that if $f:I\to J$ is a continuous solution of the functional inequality
$$f\big(\varphi(x)+\psi(y)\big)\le \Phi\big(f(x)\big)+\Psi\big(f(y)\big)\qquad (x,y\in I),$$then $\Phi\circ f\circ \varphi^{-1}$ and $\Psi\circ f\circ \psi^{-1}$ are convex functions.

Two boxes contain some number of red, yellow, and blue balls. The first box has $3$ red, $4$ yellow, and $5$ blue balls, and the second box has $6$ red, $2$ yellow, and $7$ blue balls. There are two ways to select a ball from these boxes; one could first randomly choose a box and then randomly select a ball or one could put all the balls in the same box and simply randomly select a ball from there. How much greater is the probability of drawing a red ball using the second method than the first?
