Does there exist a solution in real numbers of the system of equations \[\left\{ \begin{array}{rcl} (x - y)(z - t)(z - x)(z - t)^2 = A, \\ (y - z)(t - x)(t - y)(x - z)^2 = B,\\ (x - z)(y - t)(z - t)(y - z)^2 = C,\\ \end{array} \right.\] when a) $A=2, B=8, C=6;$ b) $A=2, B=6, C=8.$?

Determine all ordered quadruples of real numbers $(x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4)$ for which the following system of equations exists, is fulfilled: $$x_1 + ax_2 + x_3 = b $$ $$x_2 + ax_3 + x_4 = b $$ $$x_3 + ax_4 + x_1 = b $$ $$x_4 + ax_1 + x_2 = b$$ Here $a$ and $b$ are real numbers (case distinction!).

Real numbers $a$ and $b$ satisfy the system of equations $$\begin{cases} a^3-a^2+a-5=0 \\ b^3-2b^2+2b+4=0 \end{cases}$$ Find the numerical value of the sum $a+ b$.
Consider systems of three linear equations with unknowns $x,$ $y,$ and $z,$ \begin{align*} a_1 x + b_1 y + c_1 z = 0 \\ a_2 x + b_2 y + c_2 z = 0 \\ a_3 x + b_3 y + c_3 z = 0 \end{align*} where each of the coefficients is either $0$ or $1$ and the system has a solution other than $x = y = z = 0.$ For example, one such system is $\{1x + 1y + 0z = 0, 0x + 1y + 1z = 0, 0x + 0y + 0z = 0\}$ with a nonzero solution of $\{x, y, z\} = \{1, -1, 1\}.$ How many such systems are there? (The equations in a system need not be distinct, and two systems containing the same equations in a different order are considered different.) $\textbf{(A) } 302 \qquad \textbf{(B) } 338 \qquad \textbf{(C) } 340 \qquad \textbf{(D) } 343 \qquad \textbf{(E) } 344$

The math team at Jupiter Falls Middle School meets twice a month during the Summer, and the math team coach, Mr. Fischer, prepares some Olympics-themed problems for his students. One of the problems Joshua and Alexis work on boils down to a system of equations: \begin{align*}2x+3y+3z&=8,\\3x+2y+3z&=808,\\3x+3y+2z&=80808.\end{align*} Their goal is not to find a solution $(x,y,z)$ to the system, but instead to compute the sum of the variables. Find the value of $x+y+z$.
