Bernardo randomly picks $ 3$ distinct numbers from the set $ \{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\}$ and arranges them in descending order to form a $ 3$-digit number. Silvia randomly picks $ 3$ distinct numbers from the set $ \{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8\}$ and also arranges them in descending order to form a $ 3$-digit number. What is the probability that Bernardo's number is larger than Silvia's number?

Suppose that you are standing in the middle of a $100$ meter long bridge. You take a random sequence of steps either $1$ meter forward or $1$ meter backwards each iteration. At each step, if you are currently at meter $n$, you have a $\tfrac{n}{100}$ probability of $1$ meter forward, to meter $n+1$, and a $\tfrac{100-n}{100}$ of going $1$ meter backward, to meter $n-1$. What is the expected value of the number of steps it takes for you to step off the bridge (i.e., to get to meter $0$ or $100$)?
Let $C$ be the actual answer and $A$ be the answer you will submit. Your score will be given by $\max\{0,\lceil25-25|\log_6(\tfrac{A-C/2}{C/2})|^{0.8}\rceil\}$.

A positive real $M$ is $strong$ if for any positive reals $a$, $b$, $c$ satisfying
$$ \text{max}\left\{ \frac{a}{b+c} , \frac{b}{c+a} , \frac{c}{a+b} \right\} \geqslant M $$

(a) Prove that $M=20-\frac{1}{20}$ is not $strong$.
(b) Prove that $M=20-\frac{1}{21}$ is $strong$.

$18$ students with pairwise distinct heights line up. Ideally, the teacher wants the students to be ordered by height so that the tallest student is in the back of the line. However, it turns out that this is not the case, so when the teacher sees two consecutive students where the taller of the two is in front, the two students are swapped. It turns out that $150$ swaps must be made before the students are lined up in the correct order. How many possible starting orders are there?

Consider $m$ segments on the real line. Each segment has its two endpoints in the set of integers $\{1, 2, \ldots, 2024\}$, and no two segments have the same length. No segment is entirely contained in another segment, but two segments may partially overlap each other.
What is the maximum value of $m$?
