One of Euler's conjectures was disproved in the $1980$s by three American Mathematicians when they showed that there is a positive integer $n$ such that \[n^{5}= 133^{5}+110^{5}+84^{5}+27^{5}.\] Find the value of $n$.

In the small country of Mathland, all automobile license plates have four symbols. The first must be a vowel (A, E, I, O, or U), the second and third must be two different letters among the 21 non-vowels, and the fourth must be a digit (0 through 9). If the symbols are chosen at random subject to these conditions, what is the probability that the plate will read "AMC8"? $ \textbf{(A) } \frac{1}{22,050} \qquad \textbf{(B) } \frac{1}{21,000}\qquad \textbf{(C) } \frac{1}{10,500}\qquad \textbf{(D) } \frac{1}{2,100} \qquad \textbf{(E) } \frac{1}{1,050} $

On every side of a square $ABCD$, we consider three points different (to each other). a) Find the number of line segments defined with endpoints those points , that do not lie on sides of the square. b) If there are no three of the previous line segments passing through the same point, find how many of the intersection points of those segmens line in the interior of the square.

A group of frogs (called an army) is living in a tree. A frog turns green when in the shade and yellow when in the sun. Initially the ratio of green to yellow frogs was 3:1. Then 3 green frogs moved to the sunny side and 5 yellow frogs moved to the shady side. Now the ratio is 4:1. What is the difference between the number of green frogs and yellow frogs now? $\textbf{(A) } 10\qquad\textbf{(B) } 12\qquad\textbf{(C) } 16\qquad\textbf{(D) } 20\qquad\textbf{(E) } 24$

$ABCD$ is a regular tetrahedron of side length $4.$ Four congruent spheres are inside $ABCD$ such that each sphere is tangent to exactly three of the faces, the spheres have distinct centers, and the four spheres are concurrent at one point. Let $v$ be the volume of one of the spheres. If $v^2$ can be written as $\tfrac{a}{b}\pi^2,$ where $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime positive integers, find $a+b.$

In tetrahedron $ABCD$, vertex $D$ is connected with $D_0$, the centrod if $\triangle ABC$. Line parallel to $DD_0$ are drawn through $A,B$ and $C$. These lines intersect the planes $BCD, CAD$ and $ABD$ in points $A_2, B_1,$ and $C_1$, respectively. Prove that the volume of $ABCD$ is one third the volume of $A_1B_1C_1D_0$. Is the result if point $D_o$ is selected anywhere within $\triangle ABC$?

Prove that there is a positive integer $M$ for which the following statement holds: For all prime numbers $p$, there is an integer $n$ for which $\sqrt{p} \le n \le M\sqrt{p}$ and $p \mod n \le \frac{n}{2020}$ . Note: Here, $p \mod n$ denotes the unique integer $r \in {0, 1, ..., n - 1}$ for which $n|p -r$. In other words, $p \mod n$ is the residue of $p$ upon division by $n$.

2017 IMO Shortlist, N2

Let $ p \geq 2$ be a prime number. Eduardo and Fernando play the following game making moves alternately: in each move, the current player chooses an index $i$ in the set $\{0,1,2,\ldots, p-1 \}$ that was not chosen before by either of the two players and then chooses an element $a_i$ from the set $\{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\}$. Eduardo has the first move. The game ends after all the indices have been chosen .Then the following number is computed: $$M=a_0+a_110+a_210^2+\cdots+a_{p-1}10^{p-1}= \sum_{i=0}^{p-1}a_i.10^i$$. The goal of Eduardo is to make $M$ divisible by $p$, and the goal of Fernando is to prevent this. Prove that Eduardo has a winning strategy. [i]Proposed by Amine Natik, Morocco[/i]
