For each positive integer $n$, let $f_n$ be a real-valued symmetric function of $n$ real variables. Suppose that for all $n$ and all real numbers $x_1,\ldots,x_n, x_{n+1},y$ it is true that $\;(1)\; f_{n}(x_1 +y ,\ldots, x_n +y) = f_{n}(x_1 ,\ldots, x_n) +y,$ $\;(2)\;f_{n}(-x_1 ,\ldots, -x_n) =-f_{n}(x_1 ,\ldots, x_n),$ $\;(3)\; f_{n+1}(f_{n}(x_1,\ldots, x_n),\ldots, f_{n}(x_1,\ldots, x_n), x_{n+1}) =f_{n+1}(x_1 ,\ldots, x_{n}).$ Prove that $f_{n}(x_{1},\ldots, x_n) =\frac{x_{1}+\cdots +x_{n}}{n}.$

Let $ABCD$ be a parallelogram such that $\angle{ABC} > 90^{\circ}$, and $\mathcal{L}$ the line perpendicular to $BC$ that passes through $B$. Suppose that the segment $CD$ does not intersect $\mathcal{L}$. Of all the circumferences that pass through $C$ and $D$, there is one that is tangent to $\mathcal{L}$ at $P$, and there is another one that is tangent to $\mathcal{L}$ at $Q$ (where $P \neq Q$). If $M$ is the midpoint of $AB$, prove that $\angle{PMD} = \angle{QMD}$.

Let there be three cups $A, B$ and $C$, which start with $a, b$ and $c$ (all of them are natural numbers) units of gallium filled. It is also believed that all cups are large enough to contain the total amount of gallium available. It is now allowed to move gallium from one cup to another cup, provided that the contents of the latter cup are exactly double. (a) For which starting positions is it possible to empty one of the cups? (b) For which starting positions is it possible to put all of the gallium in one cup?

2024 Iran MO (3rd Round), 2

Consider the main diagonal and the cells above it in an \( n \times n \) grid. These cells form what we call a tabular triangle of length \( n \). We want to place a real number in each cell of a tabular triangle of length \( n \) such that for each cell, the sum of the numbers in the cells in the same row and the same column (including itself) is zero. For example, the sum of the cells marked with a circle is zero. It is known that the number in the topmost and leftmost cell is $1.$ Find all possible ways to fill the remaining cells.

1984 All Soviet Union Mathematical Olympiad, 383

The teacher wrote on a blackboard: $$x^2 + 10x + 20$$ Then all the pupils in the class came up in turn and either decreased or increased by $1$ either the free coefficient or the coefficient at $x$, but not both. Finally they have obtained: $$x^2 + 20x + 10$$ Is it true that some time during the process there was written the square polynomial with the integer roots?
