In a town there are $n$ avenues running from south to north. They are numbered $1$ through $n$ (from west to east). There are $n$ streets running from west to east – they are also numbered $1$ through $n$ (from south to north).
If you drive through the junction of the $k$th avenue and the $\ell$th street, you have to pay $k\ell$ kroner. How much do you at least have to pay for driving from the junction of the $1$st avenue and the $1$st street to the junction of the nth avenue and the $n$th street? (You also pay for the starting and finishing junctions.)

You want to color the side faces of a cube in such a way that each face is colored evenly. Six colors are available:
[i]red, white, blue, yellow, purple, orange[/i]. Two cube colors are called the same if one arises from the other by a rotation of the cube.
(a) How many different cube colorings are there, using six colors?
(b) How many different cube colorings are there, using exactly five colors?

Let $k \in \mathbb{N},$ $S_k = \{(a, b) | a, b = 1, 2, \ldots, k \}.$ Any two elements $(a, b)$, $(c, d)$ $\in S_k$ are called "undistinguishing" in $S_k$ if $a - c \equiv 0$ or $\pm 1 \pmod{k}$ and $b - d \equiv 0$ or $\pm 1 \pmod{k}$; otherwise, we call them "distinguishing". For example, $(1, 1)$ and $(2, 5)$ are undistinguishing in $S_5$. Considering the subset $A$ of $S_k$ such that the elements of $A$ are pairwise distinguishing. Let $r_k$ be the maximum possible number of elements of $A$.
(i) Find $r_5$.
(ii) Find $r_7$.
(iii) Find $r_k$ for $k \in \mathbb{N}$.

a) There are $2n$ rays marked in a plane, with $n$ being a natural number. Given that no two marked rays have the same direction and no two marked rays have a common initial point, prove that there exists a line that passes through none of the initial points of the marked rays and intersects with exactly $n$ marked rays.
(b) Would the claim still hold if the assumption that no two marked rays have a common initial point was dropped?
