For integers $a$ and $b$ with $0 \leq a,b < {2010}^{18}$ let $S$ be the set of all polynomials in the form of $P(x)=ax^2+bx.$ For a polynomial $P$ in $S,$ if for all integers n with $0 \leq n <{2010}^{18}$ there exists a polynomial $Q$ in $S$ satisfying $Q(P(n)) \equiv n \pmod {2010^{18}},$ then we call $P$ as a [i]good polynomial.[/i] Find the number of [i]good polynomials.[/i]

In a country there are $100$ airports. Super-Air operates direct flights between some pairs of airports (in both directions). The [i]traffic[/i] of an airport is the number of airports it has a direct Super-Air connection with. A new company, Concur-Air, establishes a direct flight between two airports if and only if the sum of their traffics is at least $100.$ It turns out that there exists a round-trip of Concur-Air flights that lands in every airport exactly once. Show that then there also exists a round-trip of Super-Air flights that lands in every airport exactly once.

We are given a regular decagon with all diagonals drawn. The number "$+ 1$ " is attached to each vertex and to each point where diagonals intersect (we consider only internal points of intersection). We can decide at any time to simultaneously change the sign of all such numbers along a given side or a given diagonal . Is it possible after a certain number of such operations to have changed all the signs to negative?
