Ted's grandfather used his treadmill on 3 days this week. He went 2 miles each day. On Monday he jogged at a speed of 5 miles per hour. He walked at the rate of 3 miles per hour on Wednesday and at 4 miles per hour on Friday. If Grandfather had always walked at 4 miles per hour, he would have spent less time on the treadmill. How many minutes less? $\textbf{(A)}\ 1 \qquad \textbf{(B)}\ 2 \qquad \textbf{(C)}\ 3 \qquad \textbf{(D)}\ 4 \qquad \textbf{(E)}\ 5$

The points $A_1,A_2, \ldots , A_{1983}$ are set on the circumference of a circle and each is given one of the values $\pm 1$. Show that if the number of points with the value $+1$ is greater than $1789$, then at least $1207$ of the points will have the property that the partial sums that can be formed by taking the numbers from them to any other point, in either direction, are strictly positive.

A, B and C are three persons among a set P of n (n[u]>[/u]3) persons. It is known that A, B and C are friends of one another, and that every one of the three persons has already made friends with more than half the total number of people in P. Given that every three persons who are friends of one another form a [i]friendly group[/i], what is the minimum number of friendly groups that may exist in P?

Each voter in an election puts $n$ names of candidates on the ballot. There are $n + 1$ at the polling station urn. After the elections it turned out that each ballot box contained at least at least one ballot, for every choice of the $(n + 1)$-th ballot, one from each ballot box, there is a candidate whose surname appears in each of the selected ballots. Prove that in at least one ballot box all ballots contain the name of the same candidate.

$2019$ coins are on the table. Two students play the following game making alternating moves. The first player can in one move take the odd number of coins from $ 1$ to $99$, the second player in one move can take an even number of coins from $2$ to $100$. The player who can not make a move is lost. Who has the winning strategy in this game?
