A [i]permutation[/i] of the set of positive integers $[n] = \{1, 2, . . . , n\}$ is a sequence $(a_1 , a_2 , \ldots, a_n ) $ such that each element of $[n]$ appears precisely one time as a term of the sequence. For example, $(3, 5, 1, 2, 4)$ is a permutation of $[5]$. Let $P (n)$ be the number of permutations of $[n]$ for which $ka_k$ is a perfect square for all $1 \leq k \leq n$. Find with proof the smallest $n$ such that $P (n)$ is a multiple of $2010$.

[b]p16[/b] Madelyn is being paid $\$50$/hour to find useful [i]Non-Functional Trios[/i], where a Non-Functional Trio is defined as an ordered triple of distinct real numbers $(a, b, c)$, and a Non- Functional Trio is [i]useful [/i] if $(a, b)$, $(b, c)$, and $(c, a)$ are collinear in the Cartesian plane. Currently, she’s working on the case $a+b+c = 2022$. Find the number of useful Non-Functional Trios $(a, b, c)$ such that $a + b + c = 2022$.

Define a [i]rooted tree[/i] to be a tree $T$ with a singular node designated as the [i]root[/i] of $T$. (Note that every node in the tree can have an arbitrary number of children.) Each vertex adjacent to the root node of $T$ is itself the root of some tree called a [i]maximal subtree[/i] of $T$. Say two rooted trees $T_1$ and $T_2$ are [i]similar[/i] if there exists some way to cycle the maximal subtrees of $T_1$ to get $T_2$. For example, the first pair of trees below are similar but the second pair are not. How many rooted trees with $2019$ nodes are there up to similarity?

Abe can paint the room in 15 hours, Bea can paint 50 percent faster than Abe, and Coe can paint twice as fast as Abe. Abe begins to paint the room and works alone for the first hour and a half. Then Bea joins Abe, and they work together until half the room is painted. Then Coe joins Abe and Bea, and they work together until the entire room is painted. Find the number of minutes after Abe begins for the three of them to finish painting the room.
