Laurie loves multiplying numbers in her head. One day she decides to multiply two $2$-digit numbers $x$ and $y$ such that $x\leq y$ and the two numbers collectively have at least three distinct digits. Unfortunately, she accidentally remembers the digits of each number in the opposite order (for example, instead of remembering $51$ she remembers $15$). Surprisingly, the product of the two numbers after flipping the digits is the same as the product of the two original numbers. How many possible pairs of numbers could Laurie have tried to multiply?

[b]p1.[/b] One day, Granny Smith bought a certain number of apples at Horock’s Farm Market. When she returned the next day she found that the price of the apples was reduced by $20\%$. She could therefore buy more apples while spending the same amount as the previous day. How many percent more?
[b]p2.[/b] You are asked to move several boxes. You know nothing about the boxes except that each box weighs no more than $10$ tons and their total weight is $100$ tons. You can rent several trucks, each of which can carry no more than $30$ tons. What is the minimal number of trucks you can rent and be sure you will be able to carry all the boxes at once?
[b]p3.[/b] The five numbers $1, 2, 3, 4, 5$ are written on a piece of paper. You can select two numbers and increase them by $1$. Then you can again select two numbers and increase those by $1$. You can repeat this operation as many times as you wish. Is it possible to make all numbers equal?
[b]p4.[/b] There are $15$ people in the room. Some of them are friends with others. Prove that there is a person who has an even number of friends in the room.

[b]p5.[/b] Several ants are crawling along a circle with equal constant velocities (not necessarily in the same direction). If two ants collide, both immediately reverse direction and crawl with the same velocity. Prove that, no matter how many ants and what their initial positions are, they will, at some time, all simultaneously return to the initial positions.

For the sequence of real numbers $a_1,a_2,\dots ,a_k$ we say it is [i]invested[/i] on the interval $[b,c]$ if there exists numbers $x_0,x_1,\dots ,x_k$ in the interval $[b,c]$ such that $|x_i-x_{i-1}|=a_i$ for $i=1,2,3,\dots k$ .
A sequence is [i]normed[/i] if all its members are not greater than $1$ . For a given natural $n$ , prove :
a)Every [i]normed[/i] sequence of length $2n+1$ is [i]invested[/i] in the interval $\left[ 0, 2-\frac{1}{2^n} \right ]$.
b) there exists [i]normed[/i] sequence of length $4n+3$ wich is not [i]invested[/i] on $\left[ 0, 2-\frac{1}{2^n} \right ]$.

Prove that if $F(x)$ and $G(x)$ are polynomials with coefficients $0$ and $1$ such that $$F(x)G(x) = 1 +x + x^2 +...+ x^{n-1}$$
holds for some $n > 1$, then one of them can be represented in the form
$$ (1 +x + x^2 +...+ x^{k-1}) T(x)$$
for some $k > 1$ where $T(x)$ is a polynomial with coefficients $0$ and $1$.

Edward, the author of this test, had to escape from prison to work in the grading room today. He stopped to rest at a place $1,875$ feet from the prison and was spotted by a guard with a crossbow.
The guard fired an arrow with an initial velocity of $100 \dfrac{\text{ft}}{\text{s}}$. At the same time, Edward started running away with an acceleration of $1 \dfrac{\text{ft}}{\text{s}^2}$. Assuming that air resistance causes the arrow to decelerate at $1 \dfrac{\text{ft}}{\text{s}^2}$, and that it does hit Edward, how fast was the arrow moving at the moment of impact (in $\dfrac{\text{ft}}{\text{s}}$)?
