Two right circular cones with vertices facing down as shown in the figure below contain the same amount of liquid. The radii of the tops of the liquid surfaces are $3 \text{ cm}$ and $6 \text{ cm}$. Into each cone is dropped a spherical marble of radius $1 \text{ cm}$, which sinks to the bottom and is completely submerged without spilling any liquid. What is the ratio of the rise of the liquid level in the narrow cone to the rise of the liquid level in the wide cone?

Let $f: \mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ and $g: \mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ be two functions satisfying
\[\forall x,y \in \mathbb R: \begin{cases} f(x+y)=f(x)f(y),\\ f(x)= x g(x)+1\end{cases} \quad \text{and} \quad \lim_{x \to 0} g(x)=1.\]
Find the derivative of $f$ in an arbitrary point $x.$

Prove that there is no inclined plane such that any tetrahedron placed arbitrarily with a certain face on the plane will not fall over.
It means the following:
Given a plane $ \pi $ and a line $ l $ not perpendicular to it. Prove that there is a tetrahedron $ T $ such that for each of its faces $ S $ there is in the plane $ \pi $ a triangle $ ABC $ congruent to $ S $ and there is a point $ D $ such that the tetrahedron $ ABCD $ congruent to $ T $ and the line parallel to $ l $ passing through the center of gravity of the tetrahedron $ ABCD $ does not intersect the triangle $ ABC $.
Note. The center of gravity of a tetrahedron is the intersection point of the segments connecting the centers of gravity of the faces of this tetrahedron with the opposite vertices (it is known that such a point always exists).

In the electoral college, each of $51$ places get some positive number of electoral votes for a nationwide total of $538$. Thus, $270$ electoral votes guarantees a win. Across all distributions of electoral votes to each place, let $M$ be the maximum number of sets of places that combine to have at least $270$ electoral votes. Find $M$.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of sets that contains more than half of all subsets of an $n$-element set $X$. Prove that from $\mathcal{F}$ we can select $\lceil \log_2 n \rceil + 1$ sets that form a separating family on $X$, i.e., for any two distinct elements of $X$ there is a selected set containing exactly one of the two elements.

Let $\Gamma_1$ be a circle with centre $A$ and $\Gamma_2$ be a circle with centre $B$, with $A$ lying on $\Gamma_2$. On $\Gamma_2$ there is a (variable) point $P$ not lying on $AB$. A line through $P$ is a tangent of $\Gamma_1$ at $S$, and it intersects $\Gamma_2$ again in $Q$, with $P$ and $Q$ lying on the same side of $AB$. A different line through $Q$ is tangent to $\Gamma_1$ at $T$. Moreover, let $M$ be the foot of the perpendicular to $AB$ through $P$. Let $N$ be the intersection of $AQ$ and $MT$.
Show that $N$ lies on a line independent of the position of $P$ on $\Gamma_2$.

In a class of $30$ students, each students knows exactly six other students. (Of course, knowing is a mutual relation, so if $A$ knows $B$, then $B$ knows $A$). A group of three students is balanced if either all three students know each other, or no one knows anyone else within that group. How many balanced groups exist?
