Assuming $a,b,c$ are the side-lengths of a triangle, show that \begin{align*} \frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{ab} + \frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{bc} + \frac{c^2+a^2-b^2}{ca} > 2. \end{align*} Also show that the inequality does not necessarily hold if you replace $2$ (on the right-hand side) by a bigger by a bigger number.

Doug and Dave shared a pizza with $ 8$ equally-sized slices. Doug wanted a plain pizza, but Dave wanted anchovies on half the pizza. The cost of a plain pizza was $ \$8$, and there was an additional cost of $ \$2$ for putting anchovies on one half. Dave ate all the slices of anchovy pizza and one plain slice. Doug ate the remainder. Each paid for what he had eaten. How many more dollars did Dave pay than Doug? $ \textbf{(A) } 1\qquad \textbf{(B) } 2\qquad \textbf{(C) } 3\qquad \textbf{(D) } 4\qquad \textbf{(E) } 5$

One hundred empty glasses are arranged in a $10 \times 10$ array. Now we pick $a$ of the rows and pour blue liquid into all glasses in these rows, so that they are half full. The remaining rows are filled halfway with yellow liquid. Afterwards, we pick $b$ of the columns and fill them up with blue liquid. The remaining columns are filled up with yellow liquid. The mixture of blue and yellow liquid turns green. If both halves have the same colour, then that colour remains as it is. [list=a] [*] Determine all possible combinations of values for $a$ and $b$ so that exactly half of the glasses contain green liquid at the end. [*] Is it possible that precisely one quarter of the glasses contain green liquid at the end? [/list]

Alice and Bob play a game in which they take turns choosing integers from 1 to $n$. Before any integers are chosen, Bob selects a goal of "odd" or "even". On the first turn, Alice chooses one of the $n$ integers. On the second turn, Bob chooses one of the remaining integers. They continue alternately choosing one of the integers that has not yet been chosen, until the $n$th turn, which is forced and ends the game. Bob wins if the parity of $\{k$ : the number $k$ was chosen on the $k$th turn $\}$ matches his goal. For which values of $n$ does Bob have a winning strategy?
