There are $38$ people in the California Baseball League (CBL). The CBL cannot start playing games until people are split into teams of exactly $9$ people (with each person in exactly one team). Moreover, there must be an even number of teams. What is the fewest number of people who must join the CBL such that the CBL can start playing games? The CBL may not revoke membership of the $38$ people already in the CBL.

On the sides of triangle $ABC$, three similar triangles are constructed with triangle $YBA$ and triangle $ZAC$ in the exterior and triangle $XBC$ in the interior. (Above, the vertices of the triangles are ordered so that the similarities take vertices to corresponding vertices, for example, the similarity between triangle $YBA$ and triangle $ZAC$ takes $Y$ to $Z, B$ to $A$ and $A$ to $C$). Prove that $AYXZ$ is a parallelogram

Let $\, |U|, \, \sigma(U) \,$ and $\, \pi(U) \,$ denote the number of elements, the sum, and the product, respectively, of a finite set $\, U \,$ of positive integers. (If $\, U \,$ is the empty set, $\, |U| = 0, \, \sigma(U) = 0, \, \pi(U) = 1$.) Let $\, S \,$ be a finite set of positive integers. As usual, let $\, \binom{n}{k} \,$ denote $\, n! \over k! \, (n-k)!$. Prove that \[ \sum_{U \subseteq S} (-1)^{|U|} \binom{m - \sigma(U)}{|S|} = \pi(S) \] for all integers $\, m \geq \sigma(S)$.
