Consider the paths from $(0,0)$ to $(6,3)$ that only take steps of unit length up and right. Compute the sum of the areas bounded by the path, the $x$-axis, and the line $x = 6$ over all such paths.
(In particular, the path from $(0,0)$ to $(6,0)$ to $(6,3)$ corresponds to an area of $0.$)

Let $n$ be a positive integer. A sequence of $n$ positive integers (not necessarily distinct) is called [b]full[/b] if it satisfies the following condition: for each positive integer $k\geq2$, if the number $k$ appears in the sequence then so does the number $k-1$, and moreover the first occurrence of $k-1$ comes before the last occurrence of $k$. For each $n$, how many full sequences are there ?

There are $ n$ markers, each with one side white and the other side black. In the beginning, these $ n$ markers are aligned in a row so that their white sides are all up. In each step, if possible, we choose a marker whose white side is up (but not one of the outermost markers), remove it, and reverse the closest marker to the left of it and also reverse the closest marker to the right of it. Prove that, by a finite sequence of such steps, one can achieve a state with only two markers remaining if and only if $ n \minus{} 1$ is not divisible by $ 3$.

Let $U$ be an open subset of the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ including $\mathbb{D}=\{z \in \mathbb{C} : |z| \le 1\}$ and $f$ be analytic over $U$. Prove that if for every $z$ with a complex norm equal to $1$($|z|=1$) we have $0<Re(\bar{z}f(z))$, then $f$ has only one root in $\mathbb{D}$ and that's simple.

Consider a latin square of size $n$. We are allowed to choose a $1 \times 1$ square in the table, and add $1$ to any number on the same row and column as the chosen square (the original square will be counted aswell) , or we can add $-1$ to all of them instead. Can we with doing finitly many operation , reach any latin square of size $n?$

Manzi has $n$ stamps and an album with $10$ pages. He distributes the $n$ stamps in the album such that each page has a distinct number of stamps. He finds that, no matter how he does this, there is always a set of $4$ pages such that the total number of stamps in these $4$ pages is at least $\frac{n}{2}$. Determine the maximum possible value of $n$.

Consider constructing a tower of tables of numbers as follows. The first table is a one by one array containing the single number $1$.
The second table is a two by two array formed underneath the first table and built as followed. For each entry, we look at the terms in the previous table that are directly up and to the left, up and to the right, and down and to the right of the entry, and we fill that entry with the sum of the numbers occurring there. If there happens to be no term at a particular location, it contributes a value of zero to the sum.

The diagram above shows how we compute the second table from the first.
The diagram below shows how to then compute the third table from the second.

For example, the entry in the middle row and middle column of the third table is equal the sum of the top left entry $1$, the top right entry $0$, and the bottom right entry $1$ from the second table, which is just $2$.
Similarly, to compute the bottom rightmost entry in the third table, we look above it to the left and see that the entry in the second table’s bottom rightmost entry is $1$. There are no entries from the second table above it and to the right or below it and to the right, so we just take this entry in the third table to be $1$.
We continue constructing the tower by making more tables from the previous tables. Find the entry in the third (from the bottom) row of the third (from the left) column of the tenth table in this resulting tower.
