[i]The following problem is open in the sense that the answer to part (b) is not currently known. A proof of part (a) will be awarded 5 points. Up to 7 additional points may be awarded for progress on part (b).[/i] Let $p(x)$ be a polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients belonging to the set of rational numbers $\mathbb{Q}$. Suppose that, for each $1 \le k \le d-1$, $p(x)$ and its $k$th derivative $p^{(k)}(x)$ have a common root in $\mathbb{Q}$; that is, there exists $r_k \in \mathbb{Q}$ such that $p(r_k) = p^{(k)}(r_k) = 0$. (a) Prove that if $d$ is prime then there exist constants $a, b, c \in \mathbb{Q}$ such that \[ p(x) = c(ax + b)^d. \] (b) For which integers $d \ge 2$ does the conclusion of part (a) hold?

Let $I \subset \mathbb{R}$ be a nondegenerate interval and $f:I \to \mathbb{R}$ a differentiable function. We denote $J= \left\{ \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a} : a,b \in I, a<b \right\}.$ Prove that: $a)$ $J$ is an interval; $b)$ $J \subset f'(I),$ and the set $f'(I) \setminus J$ contains at most two elements; $c)$ Using parts $a)$ and $b),$ deduce that $f'$ has the intermediate value property.

This problem is easy but nobody solved it. point $A$ moves in a line with speed $v$ and $B$ moves also with speed $v'$ that at every time the direction of move of $B$ goes from $A$.We know $v \geq v'$.If we know the point of beginning of path of $A$, then $B$ must be where at first that $B$ can catch $A$.
