\[ a \equal{} (X \minus{} 1)f(X) \plus{} (X^{p \minus{} 1} \plus{} X^{p \minus{} 2} \plus{} \cdots \plus{} X \plus{} 1)g(X),

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Let $P_n=\{2^n,2^{n-1}\cdot 3, 2^{n-2}\cdot 3^2, \dots, 3^n \}.$ For each subset $X$ of $P_n$, we write $S_X$ for the sum of all elements of $X$, with the convention that $S_{\emptyset}=0$ where $\emptyset$ is the empty set. Suppose that $y$ is a real number with $0 \leq y \leq 3^{n+1}-2^{n+1}.$
Prove that there is a subset $Y$ of $P_n$ such that $0 \leq y-S_Y < 2^n$

$k$ vertices of a regular $n$-gon $P$ are coloured. A colouring is called almost uniform if for every positive integer $m$ the following condition is satisfied:
If $M_1$ is a set of m consecutive vertices of $P$ and $M_2$ is another such set then the number of coloured vertices of $M_1$ differs from the number of coloured vertices of $M_2$ at most by $1$.
Prove that for all positive integers $k$ and $n$ ($k \le n$) an almost uniform colouring exists and that it is unique within a rotation.

A token starts at the point $(0,0)$ of an $xy$-coordinate grid and them makes a sequence of six moves. Each move is $1$ unit in a direction parallel to one of the coordinate axes. Each move is selected randomly from the four possible directions and independently of the other moves. The probability the token ends at a point on the graph of $|y|=|x|$ is $\tfrac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.
