On a party, there are 6 boys and a number of girls. Two of the girls know exactly four boys each and the remaining girls know exactly two boys each. None of the boys know more than three girls. (We assume that if $ A$ knows $ B$, then $ B$ will also know $ A$). Then, the greatest possible number of girls on the party is $ \text{(A)}\ 6 \qquad \text{(B)}\ 7 \qquad \text{(C)}\ 8 \qquad \text{(D)}\ 9 \qquad \text{(E)}\ \text{10 or more}$

2023 Caucasus Mathematical Olympiad, 4

Pasha and Vova play the game crossing out the cells of the $3\times 101$ board by turns. At the start, the central cell is crossed out. By one move the player chooses the diagonal (there can be $1, 2$ or $3$ cells in the diagonal) and crosses out cells of this diagonal which are still uncrossed. At least one new cell must be crossed out by any player's move. Pasha begins, the one who can not make any move loses. Who has a winning strategy?

Let $\lfloor x\rfloor$ denote the greatest integer less than or equal to $x$. Let $m$ be a positive integer, $m\geq 3$. For every integer $i$ with $1\leq i\leq m$, let \[S_{m,i}=\left\{\left\lfloor\dfrac{2^m-1}{2^{i-1}}n-2^{m-i}+1\right\rfloor\,:\,n=1,2,3,\ldots\right\}.\] For example, for $m=3$, \begin{align*}S_{3,1}&=\{\lfloor 7n-3\rfloor\,:\,n=1,2,3,\ldots\} \\&=\{4,11,18,\ldots\}, \\S_{3,2}&=\left\{\left\lfloor\dfrac72n-1\right\rfloor\,:\,n=1,2,3,\ldots\right\} \\&=\{2,6,9,\ldots\}, \\S_{3,3}&=\left\{\left\lfloor\dfrac74n\right\rfloor\,:\,n=1,2,3,\ldots\right\} \\&=\{1,3,5,\ldots\}.\end{align*} Prove that for all $m\geq 3$, each positive integer occurs in exactly one of the sets $S_{m,i}$.

Carl is given three distinct non-parallel lines $\ell_1, \ell_2, \ell_3$ and a circle $\omega$ in the plane. In addition to a normal straightedge, Carl has a special straightedge which, given a line $\ell$ and a point $P$, constructs a new line passing through $P$ parallel to $\ell$. (Carl does not have a compass.) Show that Carl can construct a triangle with circumcircle $\omega$ whose sides are parallel to $\ell_1,\ell_2,\ell_3$ in some order. [i]Proposed by Vincent Huang[/i]

2013 Tournament of Towns, 5

A spacecraft landed on an asteroid. It is known that the asteroid is either a ball or a cube. The rover started its route at the landing site and finished it at the point symmetric to the landing site with respect to the center of the asteroid. On its way, the rover transmitted its spatial coordinates to the spacecraft on the landing site so that the trajectory of the rover movement was known. Can it happen that this information is not suffcient to determine whether the asteroid is a ball or a cube?

VI Soros Olympiad 1999 - 2000 (Russia), 11.1

The game involves two players $A$ and $B$. Player $A$ sets the value of one of the coefficients $a, b$ or $c$ of the polynomial $$x^3 + ax^2 + bx + c.$$ Player $B$ indicates the value of any of the two remaining coefficients . Player $A$ then sets the value of the last coefficients. Is there a strategy for player A such that no matter how player $B$ plays, the equation $$x^3 + ax^2 + bx + c = 0$$ to have three different (real) solutions?
