Let $\alpha, \beta, \gamma \in C$ be the roots of the polynomial $x^3 - 3x2 + 3x + 7$. For any complex number $z$, let $f(z)$ be defined as follows:
$$f(z) = |z -\alpha | + |z - \beta|+ |z-\gamma | - 2 \underbrace{\max}_{w \in \{\alpha, \beta, \gamma}\} |z - w|.$$
Let $A$ be the area of the region bounded by the locus of all $z \in C$ at which $f(z)$ attains its global minimum. Find $\lfloor A \rfloor$.

Let a line $\ell$ intersect the line $AB$ at $F$, the sides $AC$ and $BC$ of a triangle $ABC$ at $D$ and $E$, respectively and the internal bisector of the angle $BAC$ at $P$. Suppose that $F$ is at the opposite side of $A$ with respect to the line $BC$, $CD = CE$ and $P$ is in the interior the triangle $ABC$. Prove that
\[FB \cdot FA+CP^2 = CF^2 \iff AD \cdot BE = PD^2.\]

There are two different versions of this problem, each with different solutions. You must find bounds for each of these problems.

[*] Alice and Bob are playing a collaborative game in which they agree upon an encoding/strategy. Alice shuffles a deck of 52 cards (numbered 1-52) (*) and takes the first $n$ cards off the top of the deck. Alice then chooses one card to be put to the side, and chooses an ordering of the other $n-1$ cards. Bob then walks into the room seeing the $n-1$ cards in the order Alice put them in. For example, if Alice was given 9-4-10-51-7-8 and chose to put 8 to the side, she could put 5 cards in order of 9-4-10-51-7 which Bob would see.
Find the lowest $n$ for which Bob could guarantee that he could use Alice's encoding to find the card placed to the side.
(*) (If you would prefer, you can write your solution in terms of the deck being a standard deck with 4 suits and 13 ranks, there's a way to move between them that we can handle.)

Alice then chooses one card to be put to the side, and chooses an ordering of the other $n-1$ cards. Carol then comes in to the room and randomly discards one of the $n-1$ cards, and places the cards back in a way that preserves the order Alice had. Bob then walks into the room seeing the $n-2$ cards in the order Alice put them in. For example, if Alice was given 1-2-3-4-5-6 and chose to put 6 to the side, she would put 5 cards in order of 1-2-3-4-5, and Carol removed 4, Bob would see 1-2-3-5.
Find the lowest $n$ for which Bob could guarantee that he could use Alice's encoding to find the card placed to the side.

2016 Denmark MO - Mohr Contest, 1
A class consisting of $24$ students has participated in the first round of the Georg Mohr Contest, where one could obtain between $0$ and $20$ points. Three of the students obtained exactly the class’s average. If each of the students that scored below the average had scored $4$ points more, the average would have been $3$ points higher. How many students scored above the class’s average?
