Let $x$ and $y$ be positive integers we have a table $x\times y$ where $(x + 1)(y + 1)$ points are red(the points are the vertices of the squares). Initially there is one ant in each red point, in a moment the ants walk by the lines of the table with same speed, each turn that an ant arrive in a red point the ant moves $90º$ to some direction.
Determine all values of $x$ and $y$ where is possible that the ants move indefinitely where can't be in any moment two ants in the same red point.

You have some white one-by-one tiles and some black and white two-bye-one tiles as shown below. There are four different color patterns that can be generated when using these tiles to cover a three-by-one rectangoe by laying these tiles side by side (WWW, BWW, WBW, WWB). How many different color patterns can be generated when using these tiles to cover a ten-by-one rectangle?

Alice and Brian are playing a game on a $1\times (N + 2)$ board. To start the game, Alice places a checker on any of the $N$ interior squares. In each move, Brian chooses a positive integer $n$. Alice must move the checker to the $n$-th square on the left or the right of its current position. If the checker moves off the board, Alice wins. If it lands on either of the end squares, Brian wins. If it lands on another interior square, the game proceeds to the next move. For which values of $N$ does Brian have a strategy which allows him to win the game in a finite number of moves?

For every $x \ge -\frac{1}{e}\,$, there is a unique number $W(x) \ge -1$ such that
\[
W(x) e^{W(x)} = x.
\]
The function $W$ is called Lambert's $W$ function. Let $y$ be the unique positive number such that
\[
\frac{y}{\log_{2} y} = - \frac{3}{5} \, .
\]
The value of $y$ is of the form $e^{-W(z \ln 2)}$ for some rational number $z$. What is the value of $z$?

A square of side length $5$ is inscribed in a square of side length $7$. If we construct a grid of $1\times1$ squares for both squares, as shown to the right, then we find that the two grids have $8$ lattice points in common. If we do the same construction by inscribing a square of side length $1489$ in a square of side length $2009$, and construct a grid of $1\times1$ squares in each large square, then how many lattice points will the two grids of $1\times1$ squares have in common?
