Let $\,S\,$ be a finite set of points in three-dimensional space. Let $\,S_{x},\,S_{y},\,S_{z}\,$ be the sets consisting of the orthogonal projections of the points of $\,S\,$ onto the $yz$-plane, $zx$-plane, $xy$-plane, respectively. Prove that \[ \vert S\vert^{2}\leq \vert S_{x} \vert \cdot \vert S_{y} \vert \cdot \vert S_{z} \vert, \] where $\vert A \vert$ denotes the number of elements in the finite set $A$.

Let $n \geq 4$ be an integer. Consider a regular $2n-$gon for which to every vertex, an integer is assigned, which we call the value of said vertex. If four distinct vertices of this $2n-$gon form a rectangle, we say that the sum of the values of these vertices is a rectangular sum.
Determine for which (not necessarily positive) integers $m$ the integers $m + 1, m + 2, . . . , m + 2n$ can be assigned to the vertices (in some order) in such a way that every rectangular sum is a prime number. (Prime numbers are positive by definition.)

There are $n{}$ currencies in a country, numbered from 1 to $n{}.$ In each currency, only non-negative integers are possible amounts of money. A person can have only one currency at any time.
A person can exchange all the money he has from currency $i{}$ to currency $j{}$ at the rate of $\alpha_{ij}$ which is a positive real number. If he had $d{}$ units of currency $i{}$ he instead receives $\alpha_{ij}d$ units of currency $j{}$ while this number is rounded to the nearest integer; a number of the form $t-1/2$ is rounded to $t{}$ for any integer $t{}.$
It is known that $\alpha_{ij}\alpha_{jk}=\alpha_{ik}$ and $\alpha_{ii}=1$ for every $i,j,k.$ Can there be a person who can get rich indefinitely?

Let $x_1 \le x_2 \le \dots < x_n$ (with $n \ge 2$) and let $S$ be the set of all the $x_i$. Let $T$ be a randomly chosen subset of $S$. What is the expected value of the indexed alternating sum of $T$ ? Express your answer in terms of the $x_i$.
Note: We define the indexed alternating sum of $T$ as
\[
\sum_{i=1}^{|T|} (-1)^{i+1}(i) T[i],
\]
where $T[i]$ is the ith element of $T$ when listed in increasing order. For example, if $T = \{1, 3, 5\}$
then the indexed alternating sum of $T$ is
\[
1 \cdot 1 - 2 \cdot 3 + 3 \cdot 5 = 10.
\]
Alternating sums of empty sets are defined to be $0$.

Let $A$ be one of the two distinct points of intersection of two unequal coplanar circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ with centers $O_1$ and $O_2$ respectively.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. On a blackboard is a circle, and around it $n$ non-negative integers are written. Raphinha plays a game in which an operation consists of erasing a number $a$ neighboring $b$ and $c$, with $b \geq c$, and writing in its place $b + c$ if $b + c \leq 5a/4$ and $b - c$ otherwise.
Your goal is to make all the numbers on the board equal $0$. Find all $n$ such that Raphinha always manages to reach her goal.
