[i]Each of the three problems in this round depends on the answer to two of the other problems. There is only one set of correct answers to these problems; however, each problem will be scored independently, regardless of whether the answers to the other problems are correct.

[b]p13.[/b] Let $B$ be the answer to problem $14$, and let $C$ be the answer to problem $15$. A quadratic function $f(x)$ has two real roots that sum to $2^{10} + 4$. After translating the graph of $f(x)$ left by $B$ units and down by $C$ units, the new quadratic function also has two real roots. Find the sum of the two real roots of the new quadratic function.
[b]p14.[/b] Let $A$ be the answer to problem $13$, and let $C$ be the answer to problem $15$. In the interior of angle $\angle NOM = 45^o$, there is a point $P$ such that $\angle MOP = A^o$ and $OP = C$. Let $X$ and $Y$ be the reflections of $P$ over $MO$ and $NO$, respectively. Find $(XY)^2$.
[b]p15.[/b] Let $A$ be the answer to problem $13$, and let $B$ be the answer to problem $14$. Totoro hides a guava at point $X$ in a flat field and a mango at point $Y$ different from $X$ such that the length $XY$ is $B$. He wants to hide a papaya at point $Z$ such that $Y Z$ has length $A$ and the distance $ZX$ is a nonnegative integer. In how many different locations can he hide the papaya?

[b]p16.[/b] Let $ABCD$ be a trapezoid such that $AB$ is parallel to $CD$, $AB = 4$, $CD = 8$, $BC = 5$, and $AD = 6$. Given that point $E$ is on segment $CD$ and that $AE$ is parallel to $BC$, find the ratio between the area of trapezoid $ABCD$ and the area of triangle $ABE$.
[b]p17.[/b] Find the maximum possible value of the greatest common divisor of $\overline{MOO}$ and $\overline{MOOSE}$, given that $S$, $O$, $M$, and $E$ are some nonzero digits. (The digits $S$, $O$, $M$, and $E$ are not necessarily pairwise distinct.)
[b]p18.[/b] Suppose that $125$ politicians sit around a conference table. Each politician either always tells the truth or always lies. (Statements of a liar are never completely true, but can be partially true.) Each politician now claims that the two people beside them are both liars. Suppose that the greatest possible number of liars is $M$ and that the least possible number of liars is $N$. Determine the ordered pair $(M,N)$.

[b]p22.[/b] Define a sequence of positive integers $s_1, s_2, ... , s_{10}$ to be [i]terrible [/i] if the following conditions are satisfied for any pair of positive integers $i$ and $j$ satisfying $1 \le i < j \le 10$:
$\bullet$ $s_i > s_j $
$\bullet$ $j - i + 1$ divides the quantity $s_i + s_{i+1} + ... + s_j$
Determine the minimum possible value of $s_1 + s_2 + ...+ s_{10}$ over all terrible sequences.
[b]p23.[/b] The four points $(x, y)$ that satisfy $x = y^2 - 37$ and $y = x^2 - 37$ form a convex quadrilateral in the coordinate plane. Given that the diagonals of this quadrilateral intersect at point $P$, find the coordinates of $P$ as an ordered pair.
[b]p24.[/b] Consider a non-empty set of segments of length $1$ in the plane which do not intersect except at their endpoints. (In other words, if point $P$ lies on distinct segments $a$ and $b$, then $P$ is an endpoint of both $a$ and $b$.) This set is called $3$-[i]amazing [/i] if each endpoint of a segment is the endpoint of exactly three segments in the set. Find the smallest possible size of a $3$-amazing set of segments.

In a chemistry experiment, a tube contains 100 particles, 68 on the right and 32 on the left. Each second, if there are $a$ particles on the left side of the tube, some number $n$ of these particles move to the right side, where $n \in \{0,1,\dots,a\}$ is chosen uniformly at random. In a similar manner, some number of the particles from the right side of the tube move to the left, at the same time. The experiment ends at the moment when all particles are on the same side of the tube. The probability that all particles end on the left side is $\tfrac{a}{b}$ for relatively prime positive integers $a$ and $b$. Compute $100a+b$.
