There are 2021 light bulbs in a row, labeled 1 through 2021, each with an on/off switch. They all start in the off position when 1011 people walk by. The first person flips the switch on every bulb; the second person flips the switch on every 3rd bulb (bulbs 3, 6, etc.); the third person flips the switch on every 5th bulb; and so on. In general, the $k$th person flips the switch on every $(2k - 1)$th light bulb, starting with bulb $2k - 1$. After all 1011 people have gone by, how many light bulbs are on?

Suppose you are given $n$ blocks, each of which weighs an integral number of pounds, but less than $n$ pounds. Suppose also that the total weight of the $n$ blocks is less than $2n$ pounds. Prove that the blocks can be divided into two groups, one of which weighs exactly $n$ pounds.
2017 CCA Math Bonanza, I7
Ari the Archer is shooting at an abnormal target. The target consists of $100$ concentric rings, each of width $1$, so that the total radius of the target is $100$. The point value of a given ring of the target is equal to its area (so getting a bull's eye would be worth $\pi$ points, but hitting on the outer ring would give $199\pi$ points). Given that Ari hits any point on the target uniformly at random, what is his expected score?

2004 computers make up a network using several cables. If for a subset $S$ in the set of all computers, there isn't a cable that connects two computers in $S$, $S$ is called independant. One lets the arbitrary independant set consists at most 50 computers, and uses the least number of cables.
(1) Let $c(L)$ be the number of cables which connects the computer $L$. Prove that for two computers $A,B$, $c(A)=c(B)$ if there is a cable which connects $A$ and $B$, $|c(A)-c(B)|\leq 1$ otherwise.
(2) Determine the number of used cables.

The sales tax rate in Bergville is $6\%$. During a sale at the Bergville Coat Closet, the price of a coat is discounted $20\%$ from its \$90.00 price. Two clerks, Jack and Jill, calculate the bill independently. Jack rings up \$90.00 and adds $6\%$ sales tax, then subtracts $20\%$ from this total. Jill rings up \$90.00, subtracts $20\%$ of the price, then adds $6\%$ of the discounted price for sales tax. What is Jack's total minus Jill's total?

Determine positive integers $p, q$, and $r$ such that the diagonal of a block consisting of $p\times q\times r$ unit cubes passes through exactly $1984$ of the unit cubes, while its length is minimal. (The diagonal is said to pass through a unit cube if it has more than one point in common with the unit cube.)

[hide="Solution"]
Let $abc=k$, then $a,b,c\ (a<b<c)$ are the roots of cubic equation $x^3-6x^2+9x-k=0\Longleftrightarrow x(x-3)^2=k$
that is to say, $a,b,c\ (a<b<c)$ are the $x$-coordinates of the interception of points between $y=x(x-3)^2$ and
$y=k$.
$y=x(x-3)^2$ have local maximuml value of $4$ at $x=1$ and local minimum value of $0$ at $x=3$.
Since the $x$-coordinate of the interception point between $y=x(x-3)^2$ and $y=4$ which is the tangent line at
local maximum point $(1,4)$ is a point $(4,4)$,Moving the line $y=k$ so that the two graphs $y=x(x-3)^2$ and
$y=k$ have the distinct three interception points,we can find that the range of $a,b,c$ are
$0<a<1,1<b<3,3<c<4
