When Walter drove up to the gasoline pump, he noticed that his gasoline tank was $\frac{1}{8}$ full. He purchased $7.5$ gallons of gasoline for $ \$10$. With this additional gasoline, his gasoline tank was then $\frac{5}{8}$ full. The number of gallons of gasoline his tank holds when it is full is
$\text{(A)}\ 8.75 \qquad \text{(B)}\ 10 \qquad \text{(C)}\ 11.5 \qquad \text{(D)}\ 15 \qquad \text{(E)}\ 22.5$

Let $ p$ be a prime and let \[ l_k(x,y)\equal{}a_kx\plus{}b_ky \;(k\equal{}1,2,...,p^2)\ .\] be homogeneous linear polynomials with integral coefficients. Suppose that for every pair $ (\xi,\eta)$ of integers, not both divisible by $ p$, the values $ l_k(\xi,\eta), \;1\leq k\leq p^2 $, represent every residue class $ \textrm{mod} \;p$ exactly $ p$ times. Prove that the set of pairs $ \{(a_k,b_k): 1\leq k \leq p^2 \}$ is identical $ \textrm{mod} \;p$ with the set $ \{(m,n): 0\leq m,n \leq p\minus{}1 \}.$

There are $6$ points on the plane such that no three of them are collinear. It's known that between every $4$ points of them, there exists a point that it's power with respect to the circle passing through the other three points is a constant value $k$.(Power of a point in the interior of a circle has a negative value.)
Prove that $k=0$ and all $6$ points lie on a circle.

A function $f(x)$ is periodic with period $T > 0$ if $f(x + T) = f(x)$ for all $x$. The smallest such number $T$ is called the least period. For example, the functions $\sin(x)$ and $\cos(x)$ are periodic with least period $2\pi$.
$\qquad$(a) Let a function $g(x)$ be periodic with the least period $T = \pi$. Determine the least period of $g(x/3)$.
$\qquad$(b) Determine the least period of $H(x) = sin(8x) + cos(4x)$
$\qquad$(c) Determine the least periods of each of $G(x) = sin(cos(x))$ and $F(x) = cos(sin(x))$.
