Suppose a continuous function $f:[-\frac{\pi}{4},\frac{\pi}{4}]\to[-1,1]$ and differentiable on $(-\frac{\pi}{4},\frac{\pi}{4})$. Then, there exists a point $x_0\in (-\frac{\pi}{4},\frac{\pi}{4})$ such that $$|f'(x_0)|\leq 1+f(x_0)^2$$

At the Mountain School, Micchell is assigned a [i]submissiveness rating[/i] of $3.0$ or $4.0$ for each class he takes. His [i]college potential[/i] is then defined as the average of his submissiveness ratings over all classes taken. After taking 40 classes, Micchell has a college potential of $3.975$. Unfortunately, he needs a college potential of at least $3.995$ to get into the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accepted#Plot]South Harmon Institute of Technology[/url]. Otherwise, he becomes a rock. Assuming he receives a submissiveness rating of $4.0$ in every class he takes from now on, how many more classes does he need to take in order to get into the South Harmon Institute of Technology?

A class has 30 students. To celebrate 'Tu BiShvat' each student chose some dried fruits out of $n$ different kinds. Say two students are friends if they both chose from the same type of fruit. Find the minimal $n$ so that it is possible that each student has exactly \(6\) friends.

Given some colored balls (at least three different colors) and at least three boxes. The balls are put into the boxes so that no box is empty and we cannot find three balls of different colors which are in three different boxes. Show that there is a box such that all the balls in all the other boxes have the same color.

The George Washington Bridge is $2016$ meters long. Sally is standing on the George Washington Bridge, $1010$ meters from its left end. Each step, she either moves $1$ meter to the left or $1$ meter to the right, each with probability $\dfrac{1}{2}$. What is the expected number of steps she will take to reach an end of the bridge?

A sequence $(a_n)$ of positive integers is defined by $a_0=m$ and $a_{n+1}= a_n^5 +487$ for all $n\ge 0$. Find all positive integers $m$ such that the sequence contains the maximum possible number of perfect squares.

For a positive integer, $m$, answer the following questions. 1) Show that $2^{m+1}+1$ is a prime number, when $2^{m+1}+1$ is a factor of $3^{2^m}+1$. 2) Is converse of 1) true?

An arbitrary point $D$ was marked on the median $BM$ of the triangle $ABC$. It is known that the point $DE\parallel AB$ and $CE \parallel BM$. Prove that $BE = AD$

There are 100 students taking an exam. The professor calls them one by one and asks each student a single person question: “How many of 100 students will have a “passed” mark by the end of this exam?” The students answer must be an integer. Upon receiving the answer, the professor immediately publicly announces the student’s mark which is either “passed” or “failed.” After all the students have got their marks, an inspector comes and checks if there is any student who gave the correct answer but got a “failed” mark. If at least one such student exists, then the professor is suspended and all the marks are replaced with “passed.” Otherwise no changes are made. Can the students come up with a strategy that guarantees a “passed” mark to each of them? [i] Denis Afrizonov [/i]

There were $n> 1$ aborigines living on an island, each of them telling only the truth or only lying, and each having at least one friend among the others. The new governor asked each aborigine whether there are more truthful aborigines or liars among his friends, or an equal number of both. Each aborigine answered that there are more liars than truthful aborigines among his friends. The governor then ordered one of the aborigines to be executed for being a liar and asked each of the remaining $n- 1$ aborigines the same question again. This time each aborigine answered that there are more truthful aborigines than liars among his friends. Determine whether the executed aborigine was truthful or a liar, and whether there are more truthful aborigines or liars remaining on the island.

Given is a triangle $ABC$, $\angle C = 60^o$, $R$ the midpoint of side $AB$. There exist a point $P$ on the line $BC$ and a point $Q$ on the line $AC$ such that the perimeter of the triangle $PQR$ is minimal. a) Prove that and also indicate how the points $P$ and $Q$ can be constructed. b) If $AB = c$, $AC = b$, $BC = a$, then prove that the perimeter of the triangle $PQR$ equals $\frac12\sqrt{3c^2+6ab}$ .

Let $m$ and $n$ be positive integers. A circular necklace contains $mn$ beads, each either red or blue. It turned out that no matter how the necklace was cut into $m$ blocks of $n$ consecutive beads, each block had a distinct number of red beads. Determine, with proof, all possible values of the ordered pair $(m, n)$. [i]Proposed by Rishabh Das[/i]

Let $(a_n)\subset (\frac{1}{2},1)$. Define the sequence $x_0=0,\displaystyle x_{n+1}=\frac{a_{n+1}+x_n}{1+a_{n+1}x_n}$. Is this sequence convergent? If yes find the limit.
