2004 Chile National Olympiad, 1

A company with $2004$ workers celebrated its anniversary by inviting everyone to a lunch served at a round table. When the $2004$ workers sat around this table, they formed a circle of people and soon discovered that they all had salaries. different and also that the difference between the salaries of any two neighbors, at the round table, was $2000$ or $3000$ pesos. Calculate the maximum difference that can exist between the wages of these workers.

The circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ has centre $O$. $P$ is the midpoint of $\widehat{BAC}$ and $QP$ is the diameter. Let $I$ be the incentre of $\triangle ABC$ and let $D$ be the intersection of $PI$ and $BC$. The circumcircle of $\triangle AID$ and the extension of $PA$ meet at $F$. The point $E$ lies on the line segment $PD$ such that $DE=DQ$. Let $R,r$ be the radius of the inscribed circle and circumcircle of $\triangle ABC$, respectively. Show that if $\angle AEF=\angle APE$, then $\sin^2\angle BAC=\dfrac{2r}R$

Let $r > 0$ be a real number. All the interior points of the disc $D(r)$ of radius $r$ are colored with one of two colors, red or blue. [list][*]If $r > \frac{\pi}{\sqrt{3}}$, show that we can find two points $A$ and $B$ in the interior of the disc such that $AB = \pi$ and $A,B$ have the same color [*]Does the conclusion in (a) hold if $r > \frac{\pi}{2}$?[/list] [i]Proposed by S Muralidharan[/i]

Two mathematicians take a morning coffee break each day. They arrive at the cafeteria independently, at random times between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m., and stay for exactly $m$ mintues. The probability that either one arrives while the other is in the cafeteria is $40 \%,$ and $m=a-b\sqrt{c},$ where $a, b,$ and $c$ are positive integers, and $c$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $a+b+c.$

Find all polynomials $P$ with integer coefficients such that $P (0)\ne 0$ and $$P^n(m)\cdot P^m(n)$$ is a square of an integer for all nonnegative integers $n, m$. [i]Remark:[/i] For a nonnegative integer $k$ and an integer $n$, $P^k(n)$ is defined as follows: $P^k(n) = n$ if $k = 0$ and $P^k(n)=P(P(^{k-1}(n))$ if $k >0$. Proposed by Adrian Beker.

Depei is imprisoned by an evil wizard and is coerced to play the following game. Every turn, Depei flips a fair coin. Then, the following events occur in this order: $\bullet$ The wizard computes the difference between the total number of heads and the total number of tails Depei has flipped. If that number is greater than or equal to $4$ or less than or equal to $-3$, then Depei is vaporized by the wizard. $\bullet$ The wizard determines if Depei has flipped at least $10$ heads or at least $10$ tails. If so, then the wizard releases Depei from the prison. The probability that Depei is released by the evil wizard equals $\frac{m}{2^k}$ , where $m, k$ are positive integers. Compute $m+k$.
