Let $c \ge 2$ be a fixed integer. Let $a_1 = c$ and for all $n \ge 2$ let $a_n = c \cdot \phi (a_{n-1})$. What are the numbers $c$ for which sequence $(a_n)$ will be bounded? $\phi$ denotes Euler’s Phi Function, meaning that $\phi (n)$ gives the number of integers within the set $\{1, 2, . . . , n\}$ that are relative primes to $n$. We call a sequence $(x_n)$ bounded if there exist a constant $D$ such that $|x_n| < D$ for all positive integers $n$.

The pieces in a game are squares of side $1$ with their sides colored with $4$ colors: blue, red, yellow and green, so that each piece has one side of each color. There are pieces in every possible color arrangement, and the game has a million pieces of each kind. With the pieces, rectangular puzzles are assembled, without gaps or overlaps, so that two pieces that share a side have that side of the same color. Determine if with this procedure you can make a rectangle of $99\times 2007$ with one side of each color. And $100\times 2008$? And $99\times 2008$?

A 2-player game is played on $n\geq 3$ points, where no 3 points are collinear. Each move consists of selecting 2 of the points and drawing a new line segment connecting them. The first player to draw a line segment that creates an odd cycle loses. (An odd cycle must have all its vertices among the $n$ points from the start, so the vertices of the cycle cannot be the intersections of the lines drawn.) Find all $n$ such that the player to move first wins.

At Zoom University, people’s faces appear as circles on a rectangular screen. The radius of one’s face is directly proportional to the square root of the area of the screen it is displayed on.
