2006 Sharygin Geometry Olympiad, 21

On the sides $AB, BC, CA$ of triangle $ABC$, points $C', A', B'$ are taken. Prove that for the areas of the corresponding triangles, the inequality holds: $$S_{ABC}S^2_{A'B'C'}\ge 4S_{AB'C'}S_{BC'A'}S_{CA'B'}$$ and equality is achieved if and only if the lines $AA', BB', CC'$ intersect at one point.

Define an ordered triple $ (A, B, C)$ of sets to be minimally intersecting if $ |A \cap B| \equal{} |B \cap C| \equal{} |C \cap A| \equal{} 1$ and $ A \cap B \cap C \equal{} \emptyset$. For example, $ (\{1,2\},\{2,3\},\{1,3,4\})$ is a minimally intersecting triple. Let $ N$ be the number of minimally intersecting ordered triples of sets for which each set is a subset of $ \{1,2,3,4,5,6,7\}$. Find the remainder when $ N$ is divided by $ 1000$. [b]Note[/b]: $ |S|$ represents the number of elements in the set $ S$.

There are three piles of matches on the table: one with $100$ matches, one with $200$, and one with $300$. Two players play the following game. They play alternatively, and a player on turn removes one of the piles and divides one of the remaining piles into two nonempty piles. The player who cannot make a legal move loses. Who has a winning strategy? (K. Kokhas’)

1996 All-Russian Olympiad Regional Round, 11.8

Is there an infinite periodic sequence consisting of the letters $a$ and$ b$, such that if all letters are replaced simultaneously $a$ to $aba$ and letters $b$ to $bba$ does it transform into itself (possibly with a shift)? (A sequence is called periodic if there is such natural number $n$, which for every $i = 1, 2, . . . i$-th member of this sequence is equal to the ($i + n$)- th.)

Penni Precisely buys $\$100$ worth of stock in each of three companies: Alabama Almonds, Boston Beans, and California Cauliflower. After one year, AA was up $20\%$, BB was down $25\%$, and CC was unchanged. For the second year, AA was down $20\%$ from the previous year, BB was up $25\%$ from the previous year, and CC was unchanged.
