There are $100$ points on the plane. All $4950$ pairwise distances between two points have been recorded. $(a)$ A single record has been erased. Is it always possible to restore it using the remaining records? $(b)$ Suppose no three points are on a line, and $k$ records were erased. What is the maximum value of $k$ such that restoration of all the erased records is always possible?

2008 ITest, 43

Alexis notices Joshua working with Dr. Lisi and decides to join in on the fun. Dr. Lisi challenges her to compute the sum of all $2008$ terms in the sequence. Alexis thinks about the problem and remembers a story one of her teahcers at school taught her about how a young Karl Gauss quickly computed the sum \[1+2+3+\cdots+98+99+100\] in elementary school. Using Gauss's method, Alexis correctly finds the sum of the $2008$ terms in Dr. Lisi's sequence. What is this sum?

Let $\mathbb N$ denote the set of positive integers. Let $f: \mathbb N \to \mathbb N$ be a function such that the following conditions hold: (a) For any $n\in \mathbb N$, we have $f(n) | n^{2016}$.
