The four circles in the figure determine 10 bounded regions. $10$ numbers summing to $100$ are written in these regions, one in each region. The sum of the numbers contained in each circle is equal to $S$ (the same quantity for each of the four circles). Determine the greatest and smallest possible values of $S$.

A four-pointed star is formed by placing for equilateral triangles of side length $4$ in a coordinate grid. The triangles are placed such that their bases lie along one of the coordinate axes, with the midpoint of the bases lying at the origin, and such that the vertices opposite the bases lie at four distinct points. Compute the area contained within the star.

[b]p1.[/b] There are $32$ balls in a box: $6$ are blue, $8$ are red, $4$ are yellow, and $14$ are brown. If I pull out three balls at once, what is the probability that none of them are brown?
[b]p2.[/b] Circles $A$ and $B$ are concentric, and the area of circle $A$ is exactly $20\%$ of the area of circle $B$. The circumference of circle $B$ is $10$. A square is inscribed in circle $A$. What is the area of that square?

[b]p4.[/b] Yizheng and Jennifer are playing a game of ping-pong. Ping-pong is played in a series of consecutive matches, where the winner of a match is given one point. In the scoring system that Yizheng and Jennifer use, if one person reaches $11$ points before the other person can reach $10$ points, then the person who reached $11$ points wins. If instead the score ends up being tied $10$-to-$10$, then the game will continue indefinitely until one person’s score is two more than the other person’s score, at which point the person with the higher score wins. The probability that Jennifer wins any one match is $70\%$ and the score is currently at $9$-to-$9$. What is the probability that Yizheng wins the game?
[b]p5.[/b] The squares on an $8\times 8$ chessboard are numbered left-to-right and then from top-to-bottom (so that the top-left square is $\#1$, the top-right square is $\#8$, and the bottom-right square is $\#64$). $1$ grain of wheat is placed on square $\#1$, $2$ grains on square $\#2$, $4$ grains on square $\#3$, and so on, doubling each time until every square of the chessboard has some number of grains of wheat on it. What fraction of the grains of wheat on the chessboard are on the rightmost column?

Michael wants to arrange a doubles tennis tournament among his friends. However, he has some peculiar conditions: the total number of matches should equal the total number of players, and every pair of friends should play as either teammates or opponents in at least one match. The number of players in a single match is four. What is the largest
number of people who can take part in such a tournament?

Aurick has a cup, a right cone with a circular base of radius $\frac12$, filled with milk tea. The slant height of the cup is $1$, and the tea fills the cup $\frac12$ of the way up the cup’s side. Suppose that Aurick tips the cup just to the point of spilling, as shown in the diagram. The new slant height EA and the tilted tea surface’s major axis $ET$ form $\angle T EA$. Compute $\cos(\angle T EA)$.
