Dexter is running a pyramid scheme. In Dexter's scheme, he hires ambassadors for his company, Lie Ultimate. Any ambassador for his company can recruit up to two more ambassadors (who are not already ambassadors), who can in turn recruit up to two more ambassadors each, and so on (Dexter is a special ambassador that can recruit as many ambassadors as he would like). An ambassador's downline consists of the people they recruited directly as well as the downlines of those people. An ambassador earns executive status if they recruit two new people and each of those people has at least $70$ people in their downline (Dexter is not considered an executive). If there are $2020$ ambassadors (including Dexter) at Lie Ultimate, what is the maximum number of ambassadors with executive status?

Two straight lines $p, q$ are given in the plane and on the straight line $q$ there is a point $F$, $F \not\in p$. Determine the set of all points $X$ that can be obtained by this construction: In the plane we choose a point $S$ that lies neither on $p$ nor on $q$, and we construct a circle $k$ with center $S$ that is tangent to the line $p$. On the circle $k$ we choose a point $T$ such that so that $ST \parallel q$. If the line $FT$ intersects the line $p$ at the point $U$, $X$ is the intersection of the lines $SU$ and $q$

A positive integer is a good number, if its base $10$ representation can be split into at least $5$ sections, each section with a non-zero digit, and after interpreting each section as a positive integer (omitting leading zero digits), they can be split into two groups, such that each group can be reordered to form a geometric sequence (if a group has $1$ or $2$ numbers, it is also a geometric sequence), for example $20240327$ is a good number, since after splitting it as $2|02|403|2|7$, $2|02|2$ and $403|7$ form two groups of geometric sequences.
If $a>1$, $m>2$, $p=1+a+a^2+\dots+a^m$ is a prime, prove that $\frac{10^{p-1}-1}{p}$ is a good number.

Let $A_1,B_1,C_1$ be the midpoints of the sides of the $BC,AC, AB$ of an equilateral triangle $ABC$. Around the triangle $A_1B_1C_1$ is a circle $\gamma$, to which the tangents $B_2C_2$, $A_2C_2$, $A_2B_2$ are drawn, respectively, parallel to the sides $BC, AC, AB$. These tangents have no points in common with the interior of triangle $ABC$. Find out the mutual location of the points of intersection of the lines $AA_2$ and $BB_2$, $AA_2$ and $CC_2$, $BB_2$ and $CC_2$ and the circumscribed circle $\gamma$. Try to consider the case of arbitrary points $A_1,B_1,C_1$ located on the sides of the triangle $ABC$.

A square with side $2008$ is broken into regions that are all squares with side $1$. In every region, either $0$ or $1$ is written, and the number of $1$'s and $0$'s is the same. The border between two of the regions is removed, and the numbers in each of them are also removed, while in the new region, their arithmetic mean is recorded. After several of those operations, there is only one square left, which is the big square itself. Prove that it is possible to perform these operations in such a way, that the final number in the big square is less than $\frac{1}{2^{10^6}}$.
