[b]p1.[/b] An evil galactic empire is attacking the planet Naboo with numerous automatic drones. The fleet defending the planet consists of $101$ ships. By the decision of the commander of the fleet, some of these ships will be used as destroyers equipped with one rocket each or as rocket carriers that will supply destroyers with rockets. Destroyers can shoot rockets so that every rocket destroys one drone. During the attack each carrier will have enough time to provide each destroyer with one rocket but not more. How many destroyers and how many carriers should the commander assign to destroy the maximal number of drones and what is the maximal number of drones that the fleet can destroy?

Some of these members mutually dislike each other. However, each member of the Council dislikes less than half of the members. The Council holds meetings around the round table. Queen Amidala knows about the relationship between the members so she tries to arrange their seats so that the members that dislike each other are not seated next to each other. But she does not know whether it is possible. Can you help the Queen in arranging the seats? Justify your answer. PS. You should use hide for answers.

In a Cartesian coordinate plane, call a rectangle $standard$ if all of its sides are parallel to the $x$- and $y$- axes, and call a set of points $nice$ if no two of them have the same $x$- or $y$- coordinate. First, Bert chooses a nice set $B$ of $2016$ points in the coordinate plane. To mess with Bert, Ernie then chooses a set $E$ of $n$ points in the coordinate plane such that $B\cup E$ is a nice set with $2016+n$ points. Bert returns and then miraculously notices that there does not exist a standard rectangle that contains at least two points in $B$ and no points in $E$ in its interior. For a given nice set $B$ that Bert chooses, define $f(B)$ as the smallest positive integer $n$ such that Ernie can find a nice set $E$ of size $n$ with the aforementioned properties. Help Bert determine the minimum and maximum possible values of $f(B)$. [i]Yannick Yao[/i]
