Let $A$ be a set of $2n$ points in the plane, no three of which are collinear. Suppose that $n$ of them are colored red and the remaining $n$ blue. Prove or disprove: there are $n$ closed straight line segments, no two with a point in common, such that the endpoints of each segment are points of $A$ having different colors.

Chantal and Jean start hiking from a trailhead toward a fire tower. Jean is wearing a heavy backpack and walks slower. Chantal starts walking at $4$ miles per hour. Halfway to the tower, the trail becomes really steep, and Chantal slows down to $2$ miles per hour. After reaching the tower, she immediately turns around and descends the steep part of the trail at $3$ miles per hour. She meets Jean at the halfway point. What was Jean's average speed, in miles per hour, until they meet? $\textbf{(A)}~\frac{12}{13}\qquad \textbf{(B)}~1\qquad \textbf{(C)}~\frac{13}{12}\qquad \textbf{(D)}~\frac{24}{13}\qquad \textbf{(E)}~2$

There is a lottery at Juku’s birthday party with a number of identical prizes, where each guest can win at most one prize. It is known that if there was one prize less, then the number of possible distributions of the prizes among the guests would be $50\%$ less than it actually is, while if there was one prize more, then the number of possible distributions of the prizes would be $50\%$ more than it actually is. Find the number of possible distributions of the prizes.

Dima has written number $ 1/80!,\,1/81!,\,\dots,1/99!$ on $ 20$ infinite pieces of papers as decimal fractions (the following is written on the last piece: $ \frac {1}{99!} \equal{} 0{,}{00\dots 00}10715\dots$, 155 0-s before 1). Sasha wants to cut a fragment of $ N$ consecutive digits from one of pieces without the comma. For which maximal $ N$ he may do it so that Dima may not guess, from which piece Sasha has cut his fragment? [i]A. Golovanov[/i]

The road ministry has assigned $80$ informal companies to repair $2400$ roads. These roads connect $100$ cities to each other. Each road is between $2$ cities and there is at most $1$ road between every $2$ cities. We know that each company repairs $30$ roads that it has agencies in each $2$ ends of them. Prove that there exists a city in which $8$ companies have agencies.
