Isabella must take four 100-point tests in her math class. Her goal is to achieve an average grade of 95 on the tests. Her first two test scores were 97 and 91. After seeing her score on the third test, she realized she can still reach her goal. What is the lowest possible score she could have made on the third test?
$\textbf{(A)}\hspace{.05in}90 \qquad \textbf{(B)}\hspace{.05in}92 \qquad \textbf{(C)}\hspace{.05in}95 \qquad \textbf{(D)}\hspace{.05in}96 \qquad \textbf{(E)}\hspace{.05in}97 $

Two circles $k_1$ and $k_2$ with radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ touch each outside at point $Q$. The other endpoints of the diameters through $Q$ are $P$ on $k_1$ and $R$ on $k_2$.
We choose two points $A$ and $B$, one on each of the arcs $PQ$ of $k_1$. ($PBQA$ is a convex quadrangle.)
Further, let $C$ be the second point of intersection of the line $AQ$ with $k_2$ and let $D$ be the second point of intersection of the line $BQ$ with $k_2$.
The lines $PB$ and $RC$ intersect in $U$ and the lines $PA$ and $RD$ intersect in $V$ .
Show that there is a point $Z$ that lies on all of these lines $UV$.

A player is playing the following game. In each turn he flips a coin and guesses the outcome. If his guess is correct, he gains $ 1$ point; otherwise he loses all his points. Initially the player has no points, and plays the game
until he has $ 2$ points.
(a) Find the probability $ p_{n}$ that the game ends after exactly $ n$ flips.
(b) What is the expected number of flips needed to finish the game?

A rectangular grid whose side lengths are integers greater than $1$ is given. Smaller rectangles with area equal to an odd integer and length of each side equal to an integer greater than $1$ are cut out one by one. Finally one single unit is left. Find the least possible area of the initial grid before the cuttings.

Suppose that $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers with $A = \tfrac mn$, where
\[ A = \frac{2+4+6+\dots+2014}{1+3+5+\dots+2013} - \frac{1+3+5+\dots+2013}{2+4+6+\dots+2014}. \] Find $m$. In other words, find the numerator of $A$ when $A$ is written as a fraction in simplest form.

Let ABC be a triangle with angles $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ commensurable with $\pi$. Starting from a point $P$ interior to the triangle, a ball reflects on the sides of $ABC$, respecting the law of reflection that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Prove that, supposing that the ball never reaches any of the vertices $A,B,C$, the set of all directions in which the ball will move through time is finite. In other words, its path from the moment $0$ to infinity consists of segments parallel to a finite set of lines.
