A biologist wants to calculate the number of fish in a lake. On May 1 she catches a random sample of 60 fish, tags them, and releases them. On September 1 she catches a random sample of 70 fish and finds that 3 of them are tagged. To calculate the number of fish in the lake on May 1, she assumes that $25\%$ of these fish are no longer in the lake on September 1 (because of death and emigrations), that $40\%$ of the fish were not in the lake May 1 (because of births and immigrations), and that the number of untagged fish and tagged fish in the September 1 sample are representative of the total population. What does the biologist calculate for the number of fish in the lake on May 1?

In this infinite tree, degree of each vertex is equal to 3. A real number $ \lambda$ is given. We want to assign a real number to each node in such a way that for each node sum of numbers assigned to its neighbors is equal to $ \lambda$ times of the number assigned to this node.
Find all $ \lambda$ for which this is possible.

If $\phi$ is the Golden Ratio, we know that $\frac1\phi = \phi - 1$. Define a new positive real number, called $\phi_d$, where $\frac1{\phi_d} = \phi_d - d$ (so $\phi = \phi_1$). Given that $\phi_{2009} = \frac{a + \sqrt{b}}{c}$, $a, b, c$ positive integers, and the greatest common divisor of $a$ and $c$ is 1, find $a + b + c$.

A massless elastic cord (that obeys Hooke's Law) will break if the tension in the cord exceeds $T_{max}$. One end of the cord is attached to a fixed point, the other is attached to an object of mass $3m$. If a second, smaller object of mass m moving at an initial speed $v_0$ strikes the larger mass and the two stick together, the cord will stretch and break, but the final kinetic energy of the two masses will be zero. If instead the two collide with a perfectly elastic one-dimensional collision, the cord will still break, and the larger mass will move off with a final speed of $v_f$. All motion occurs on a horizontal, frictionless surface.
Find the ratio of the total kinetic energy of the system of two masses after the perfectly elastic collision and the cord has broken to the initial kinetic energy of the smaller mass prior to the collision.
