[b]p1.[/b] You are on a flat planet. There are $100$ cities at points $x = 1, ..., 100$ along the line $y = -1$, and another $100$ cities at points $x = 1, ... , 100$ along the line $y = 1$. The planet’s terrain is scalding hot, and you cannot walk over it directly. Instead, you must cross archways from city to city. There are archways between all pairs of cities with different $y$ coordinates, but no other pairs: for instance, there is an archway from $(1, -1)$ to $(50, 1)$, but not from $(1, -1)$ to $(50, -1)$. The amount of “effort” necessary to cross an archway equals the square of the distance between the cities it connects. You are at $(1, -1)$, and you want to get to $(100, -1)$. What is the least amount of effort this journey can take? [b]p2.[/b] Let $f(x) = x^4 + ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + 25$. Suppose $a, b, c$ are integers and $f(x)$ has $4$ distinct integer roots. Find $f(3)$.

How many distinct paths can Frankenstein take to reach his destination? [b]p4.[/b] Let $ABCD$ be a rectangle with $AB = 20$, $BC = 15$.

Find the length $XY$ . [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/2/8/a3f7706171ff3c93389ff80a45886e306476d1.png[/img] [b]p5.[/b] $n \ge 2$ kids are trick-or-treating. They enter a haunted house in a single-file line such that each kid is friends with precisely the kids (or kid) adjacent to him. Inside the haunted house, they get mixed up and out of order. They meet up again at the exit, and leave in single file. After leaving, they realize that each kid (except the first to leave) is friends with at least one kid who left before him. In how many possible orders could they have left the haunted house? [b]p6.[/b] Call a set $S$ sparse if every pair of distinct elements of S differ by more than $1$. Find the number of sparse subsets (possibly empty) of $\{1, 2,... , 10\}$. [b]p7.[/b] How many ordered triples of integers $(a, b, c)$ are there such that $1 \le a, b, c \le 70$ and $a^2 + b^2 + c^2$ is divisible by $28$? [b]p8.[/b] Let $C_1$, $C_2$ be circles with centers $O_1$, $O_2$, respectively. Line $\ell$ is an external tangent to $C_1$ and $C_2$, it touches $C_1$ at $A$ and $C_2$ at $B$.

Let $\overline{OO_1}$ and $\overline{OO_2}$ intersect circle $C$ at $D$ and $E$, respectively. Suppose the radii of $C_1$ and $C_2$ are $16$ and $9$, respectively, and suppose the area of the quadrilateral $O_1O_2BA$ is $300$. Find the length of segment $DE$. [b]p9.[/b] What is the remainder when $5^{5^{5^5}}$ is divided by $13$? [b]p10.[/b] Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the smallest and largest real numbers satisfying $$x^2 = 13 + \lfloor x \rfloor + \left\lfloor \frac{x}{2} \right\rfloor +\left\lfloor \frac{x}{3} \right\rfloor + \left\lfloor \frac{x}{4} \right\rfloor .$$ Find $\beta - \alpha$ .
