Real numbers are written on the squares of an infinite grid. Two figures consisting of finitely many squares are given. They may be translated anywhere on the grid as long as their squares coincide with those of the grid. It is known that wherever the first figure is translated, the sum of numbers it covers is positive. Prove that the second figure can be translated so that the sum of the numbers it covers is also positive.

We say that a function \( f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) is morally odd if its graph is symmetric with respect to a point, that is, there exists \((x_0, y_0) \in \mathbb{R}^2\) such that if \((u, v) \in \{(x, f(x)) : x \in \mathbb{R}\}\), then \((2x_0 - u, 2y_0 - v) \in \{(x, f(x)) : x \in \mathbb{R}\}\). On the other hand, \( f \) is said to be morally even if its graph \(\{(x, f(x)) : x \in \mathbb{R}\}\) is symmetric with respect to some line (not necessarily vertical or horizontal). If \( f \) is morally even and morally odd, we say that \( f \) is parimpar. (a) Let \( S \subset \mathbb{R} \) be a bounded set and \( f: S \to \mathbb{R} \) be an arbitrary function. Prove that there exists \( g: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) that is parimpar such that \( g(x) = f(x) \) for all \( x \in S \). (b) Find all polynomials \( P \) with real coefficients such that the corresponding polynomial function \( P: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) is parimpar.

In each cell of an $n\times n$ board is a lightbulb. Initially, all of the lights are off. Each move consists of changing the state of all of the lights in a row or of all of the lights in a column (off lights are turned on and on lights are turned off). Show that if after a certain number of moves, at least one light is on, then at this moment at least $n$ lights are on.
