In a room, there are $n$ lights numbered with positive integers $1, 2, \ldots, n$. At the beginning of the game subsets $S_1, S_2,\ldots,S_k$ of $\{1,\ldots, n\}$ can be chosen. For every integer $1\le i\le k$, there is a button that turns on the lights corresponding to the elements of $S_i$ and also a button that turns off all the lights corresponding to the elements of $S_i$. For any positive integer $n$, determine the smallest $k$ for which it is possible to choose the sets $S_1, S_2, \ldots, S_n$ in such a way that allows any combination of the $n$ lights to be turned on, starting from the state where all the lights are off.

Let $S$ be the set $\{-1, 1\}^n$, that is, $n$-tuples such that each coordinate is either $-1$ or $1$. For \[s = (s_1, s_2, \ldots, s_n), t = (t_1, t_2, \ldots, t_n) \in \{-1, 1\}^n,\] define $s \odot t = (s_1t_1, s_2t_2, \ldots, s_nt_n)$.

Show that there exists a function $f'$ such that $f'(s \odot t) = f'(s)f'(t)$ for all $s, t \in S$ and $f(s) = f'(s)$ for at least $(1-10c) \cdot 2^n$ values of $s \in S$.

The integer $202020$ is a multiple of $91$. For each positive integer $n$, show how $n$ additional $2$'s may be inserted into the digits of $202020$ such that the resulting $(n+6)$-digit number is also a multiple of $91$. For example, a possible way to do this when $n=5$ is [u]2[/u]2020[u]2[/u]20[u]222[/u] (the inserted $2$'s are underlined).
