Four people were guessing the number, $N$, of jellybeans in a jar. No two guesses were equally close to $N$. The closest guess was 80 jellybeans, the next closest guess was 60 jellybeans, followed by 49 jellybeans, and the furthest guess was 125 jellybeans. Find the sum of all possible values for $N$.

The kingdom of Anisotropy consists of $n$ cities. For every two cities there exists exactly one direct one-way road between them. We say that a [i]path from $X$ to $Y$[/i] is a sequence of roads such that one can move from $X$ to $Y$ along this sequence without returning to an already visited city. A collection of paths is called [i]diverse[/i] if no road belongs to two or more paths in the collection. Let $A$ and $B$ be two distinct cities in Anisotropy. Let $N_{AB}$ denote the maximal number of paths in a diverse collection of paths from $A$ to $B$. Similarly, let $N_{BA}$ denote the maximal number of paths in a diverse collection of paths from $B$ to $A$. Prove that the equality $N_{AB} = N_{BA}$ holds if and only if the number of roads going out from $A$ is the same as the number of roads going out from $B$.

Let $n$ be a given positive integer. Alice and Bob play a game. In the beginning, Alice determines an integer polynomial $P(x)$ with degree no more than $n$. Bob doesn’t know $P(x)$, and his goal is to determine whether there exists an integer $k$ such that no integer roots of $P(x) = k$ exist. In each round, Bob can choose a constant $c$. Alice will tell Bob an integer $k$, representing the number of integer $t$ such that $P(t) = c$. Bob needs to pay one dollar for each round. Find the minimum cost such that Bob can guarantee to reach his goal. [i]Proposed by ltf0501[/i]
