Anna is out shopping for fruit. She observes that four oranges, three bananas and one lemon costs exactly the same as three oranges and two lemons (all prices are in whole kroner). Just then her friend Bengt calls, and Anna tells this to him. Bengt complains, that ''information is not enough for me to know how much each fruit costs''. ''No'', says Anna,' 'but three oranges and two lemons cost as many kroner as your mother is old''. Unfortunately, it's not enough either, but if she had been younger then the information would have been sufficient for you to be able to figure out what the fruits costs. How old is Bengt's mother?

[b]p1.[/b] You are on a flat planet. There are $100$ cities at points $x = 1, ..., 100$ along the line $y = -1$, and another $100$ cities at points $x = 1, ... , 100$ along the line $y = 1$. The planet’s terrain is scalding hot, and you cannot walk over it directly. Instead, you must cross archways from city to city. There are archways between all pairs of cities with different $y$ coordinates, but no other pairs: for instance, there is an archway from $(1, -1)$ to $(50, 1)$, but not from $(1, -1)$ to $(50, -1)$. The amount of “effort” necessary to cross an archway equals the square of the distance between the cities it connects. You are at $(1, -1)$, and you want to get to $(100, -1)$. What is the least amount of effort this journey can take? [b]p2.[/b] Let $f(x) = x^4 + ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + 25$. Suppose $a, b, c$ are integers and $f(x)$ has $4$ distinct integer roots. Find $f(3)$.
