The Annual Interplanetary Mathematics Examination (AIME) is written by a committee of five Martians, five Venusians, and five Earthlings. At meetings, committee members sit at a round table with chairs numbered from $ 1$ to $ 15$ in clockwise order. Committee rules state that a Martian must occupy chair $ 1$ and an Earthling must occupy chair $ 15$. Furthermore, no Earthling can sit immediately to the left of a Martian, no Martian can sit immediately to the left of a Venusian, and no Venusian can sit immediately to the left of an Earthling. The number of possible seating arrangements for the committee is $ N\cdot (5!)^3$. Find $ N$.

Let $n$ be a fixed positive integer. Ben is playing a computer game. The computer picks a tree $T$ such that no vertex of $T$ has degree $2$ and such that $T$ has exactly $n$ leaves, labeled $v_1,\ldots, v_n$. The computer then puts an integer weight on each edge of $T$, and shows Ben neither the tree $T$ nor the weights. Ben can ask queries by specifying two integers $1\leq i < j \leq n$, and the computer will return the sum of the weights on the path from $v_i$ to $v_j$. At any point, Ben can guess whether the tree's weights are all zero. He wins the game if he is correct, and loses if he is incorrect. (a) Show that if Ben asks all $\binom n2$ possible queries, then he can guarantee victory. (b) Does Ben have a strategy to guarantee victory in less than $\binom n2$ queries? [i]Brandon Wang[/i]

Water is flowing out through the smaller base of a hollow conical frustum formed by taking a downwards pointing cone of radius $12\text{m}$ and slicing off the tip of the cone in a cut parallel to the base so that the radius of the cross-section of the slice is $6\text{m}$ (meaning the smaller base has a radius of $6\text{m}$). The height of the frustum is $10\text{m}$. If the height of the water level in the frustum is decreasing at $3\text{m/s}$ and the current height is $5\text{m}$, then the volume of the water in the frustum is decreasing at $d\text{ m}^3\text{/s}$. Compute $d$.

Do there exist positive integers $b,n>1$ such that when $n$ is expressed in base $b$, there are more than $n$ distinct permutations of its digits? For example, when $b=4$ and $n=18$, $18 = 102_4$, but $102$ only has $6$ digit arrangements. (Leading zeros are allowed in the permutations.) [i]Lewis Chen.[/i]
