Seyed has 998 white coins, a red coin, and an unusual coin with one red side and one white side. He can not see the color of the coins instead he has a scanner which checks if all of the coin sides touching the scanner glass are white. Is there any algorithm to find the red coin by using the scanner at most 17 times?

A $\emph{planar}$ graph is a connected graph that can be drawn on a sphere without edge crossings. Such a drawing will divide the sphere into a number of faces. Let $G$ be a planar graph with $11$ vertices of degree $2$, $5$ vertices of degree $3$, and $1$ vertex of degree $7$. Find the number of faces into which $G$ divides the sphere.

Points $Y,Z$ lie on the smaller arc $BC$ of the circumcircle of an acute triangle $\bigtriangleup ABC$ ($Y$ lies on the smaller arc $BZ$). Let $X$ be a point such that the triangles $\bigtriangleup ABC,\bigtriangleup XYZ$ are similar (in this exact order) with $A,X$ lying on the same side of $YZ$. Lines $XY,XZ$ intersect sides $AB,AC$ at points $E,F$ respectively. Let $K$ be the intersection of lines $BY,CZ$. Prove that one of the intersections of the circumcircles of triangles $\bigtriangleup AEF,\bigtriangleup KBC$ lie on the line $KX$.

An island has $10$ cities, where some of the possible pairs of cities are connected by roads. A [i]tour route[/i] is a route starting from a city, passing exactly eight out of the other nine cities exactly once each, and returning to the starting city. (In other words, it is a loop that passes only nine cities instead of all ten cities.) For each city, there exists a tour route that doesn't pass the given city. Find the minimum number of roads on the island.
