Define two functions $f(t)=\frac 12\left(t+\frac{1}{t}\right),\ g(t)=t^2-2\ln t$.

Let $a>1$, find the area of the part bounded by the line $x=\frac 12\left(a+\frac{1}{a}\right)$ and the curve $C$.

For a positive integer $n$, two payers $A$ and $B$ play the following game: Given a pile of $s$ stones, the players take turn alternatively with $A$ going first. On each turn the player is allowed to take either one stone, or a prime number of stones, or a positive multiple of $n$ stones. The winner is the one who takes the last stone. Assuming both $A$ and $B$ play perfectly, for how many values of $s$ the player $A$ cannot win?

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Daniel and Merlijn are playing a game. Daniel has $k$ sheets of paper lying next to each other on a table, where $k$ is a positive integer. On each of the sheets, he writes some of the numbers from $1$ up to $n$ (he is allowed to write no number at all, or all numbers). On the back of each of the sheets, he writes down the remaining numbers. Once Daniel is finished, Merlijn can flip some of the sheets of paper (he is allowed to flip no sheet at all, or all sheets). If Merlijn succeeds in making all of the numbers from $1$ up to n visible at least once, then he wins. Determine the smallest $k$ for which Merlijn can always win, regardless of Daniel’s actions.
