Given positive integers $d \ge 3$, $r>2$ and $l$, with $2d \le l <rd$. Every vertice of the graph $G(V,E)$ is assigned to a positive integer in $\{1,2,\cdots,l\}$, such that for any two consecutive vertices in the graph, the integers they are assigned to, respectively, have difference no less than $d$, and no more than $l-d$. A proper coloring of the graph is a coloring of the vertices, such that any two consecutive vertices are not the same color. It's given that there exist a proper subset $A$ of $V$, such that for $G$'s any proper coloring with $r-1$ colors, and for an arbitrary color $C$, either all numbers in color $C$ appear in $A$, or none of the numbers in color $C$ appear in $A$. Show that $G$ has a proper coloring within $r-1$ colors.

For a triangle $ ABC $ which $ \angle B \ne 90^{\circ} $ and $ AB \ne AC $, define $ P_{ABC} $ as follows ; Let $ I $ be the incenter of triangle $ABC$, and let $ D, E, F $ be the intersection points with the incircle and segments $ BC, CA, AB $. Two lines $ AB $ and $ DI $ meet at $ S $ and let $ T $ be the intersection point of line $ DE $ and the line which is perpendicular with $ DF $ at $ F $. The line $ ST $ intersects line $ EF $ at $ R$. Now define $ P_{ABC} $ be one of the intersection points of the incircle and the circle with diameter $ IR $, which is located in other side with $ A $ about $ IR $. Now think of an isosceles triangle $ XYZ $ such that $ XZ = YZ > XY $. Let $ W $ be the point on the side $ YZ $ such that $ WY < XY $ and Let $ K = P_{YXW} $ and $ L = P_{ZXW} $. Prove that $ 2 KL \le XY $.

Let $F_1,F_2,F_3,...$ be the [i]Fibonacci sequence[/i], the sequence of positive integers with $F_1 =F_2 =1$ and $F_{n+2}=F_{n+1}+F_n$ for all $n \ge 1$. A [i]Fibonacci number[/i] is by definition a number appearing in this sequence. Let $P_1,P_2,P_3,...$ be the sequence consisting of all the integers that are products of two Fibonacci numbers (not necessarily distinct) in increasing order. The first few terms are $1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,13,...$ since, for example $3 = 1 \cdot 3, 4 = 2 \cdot 2$, and $10 = 2 \cdot 5$. Consider the sequence $D_n$ of [i]successive [/i] differences of the $P_n$ sequence, where $D_n = P_{n+1}-P_n$ for $n \ge 1$. The first few terms of D_n are $1,1,1,1,1,2,1,1,3, ...$ . Prove that every number in $D_n$ is a [i]Fibonacci number[/i].

A cylindrical container of revolution is partially filled with a liquid whose density we ignore. Placing it with the axis inclined $30^o$ with respect to the vertical, we observe that when removing liquid so that the level falls $1$ cm, the weight of the contents decreases $40$ g. How much will the weight of that content decrease for each centimeter that lower the level if the axis makes an angle of $45^o$ with the vertical? It is supposed that the horizontal surface of the liquid does not touch any of the bases of the container.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Let $a,b,x$ be real numbers, with $a \neq b$ and let $M_n$ denote the $2n x 2n $ matrix whose $(i,j)$ entry $m_{ij}$ is given by $m_{ij}=x$ if $i=j$, $m_{ij}=a$ if $i \not= j$ and $i+j$ is even, $m_{ij}=b$ if $i \not= j$ and $i+j$ is odd. For example $ M_2=\begin{vmatrix}x& b& a & b\\ b& x & b &a\\ a & b& x & b\\ b & a & b & x \end{vmatrix}$. Express $\lim_{x\to\ 0} \frac{ det M_n}{ (x-a)^{(2n-2)} }$ as a polynomial in $a,b $ and $n$ . P.S. How write in latex $m_{ij}=...$ with symbol for the system (because is multiform function?)
