Billy is standing at $(1,0)$ in the coordinate plane as he watches his Aunt Sydney go for her morning jog starting at the origin. If Aunt Sydney runs into the First Quadrant at a constant speed of $1$ meter per second along the graph of $x=\frac25y^2$, find the rate, in radians per second, at which Billy’s head is turning clockwise when Aunt Sydney passes through $x=1$.

Define a positive integer $n$ to be [i]almost-cubic [/i] if it becomes a perfect cube upon concatenating the digit $5$. For example, $12$ is almost-cubic because $125 = 5^3$. Find the remainder when the sum of all almost-cubic $n < 10^8$ is divided by $1000$.

If the probability he spells out ABMC at least once after hitting $6$ keys is $\frac{a}{b^c}$ , for positive integers $a$, $b$, $c$ where $b$, $c$ are both as small as possible, find $a+b+c$. Note that the letters ABMC must be adjacent for it to count: AEBMCC should not be considered as correctly spelling out ABMC. [b]p8.[/b] It takes a Daniel twenty minutes to change a light bulb. It takes a Raymond thirty minutes to change a light bulb. It takes a Bryan forty-five minutes to change a light bulb. In the time that it takes two Daniels, three Raymonds, and one and a half Bryans to change $42$ light bulbs, how many light bulbs could half a Raymond change? Assume half a person can work half as productively as a whole person. [b]p9.[/b] Find the value of $5a + 4b + 3c + 2d + e$ given $a, b, c, d, e$ are real numbers satisfying the following equations: $$a^2 = 2e + 23$$ $$b^2 = 10a - 34$$ $$c^2 = 8b - 23$$ $$d^2 = 6c - 14$$ $$e^2 = 4d - 7.$$ [b]p10.[/b] How many integers between $1$ and $1000$ contain exactly two $1$’s when written in base $2$? [b]p11.[/b] Joe has lost his $2$ sets of keys. However, he knows that he placed his keys in one of his $12$ mailboxes, each labeled with a different positive integer from $1$ to $12$. Joe plans on opening the $2$ mailbox labeled $1$ to see if any of his keys are there. However, a strong gust of wind blows by, opening mailboxes $11$ and $12$, revealing that they are empty. If Joe decides to open one of the mailboxes labeled $2$, $3$, $4$, $5$, $6$, $7$, $8$, $9$ , or $10$, the probability that he finds at least one of his sets of keys can be expressed as $\frac{a}{b}$, where a and b are relatively prime positive integers. Find the sum $a + b$. Note that a single mailbox can contain $0$, $1$, or $2$ sets of keys, and the mailboxes his sets of keys were placed in are determined independently at random. [b]p12.[/b] As we all know, the top scientists have recently proved that the Earth is a flat disc. Bob is standing on Earth. If he takes the shortest path to the edge, he will fall off after walking $1$ meter. If he instead turns $90$ degrees away from the shortest path and walks towards the edge, he will fall off after $3$ meters. Compute the radius of the Earth. [b]p13.[/b] There are $999$ numbers that are repeating decimals of the form $0.abcabcabc...$ . The sum of all of the numbers of this form that do not have a $1$ or $2$ in their decimal representation can be expressed as $\frac{a}{b}$ for relatively prime positive integers $a$, $b$. Find $a + b$. [b]p14.[/b] An ant is crawling along the edges of a sugar cube. Every second, it travels along an edge to another adjacent vertex randomly, interested in the sugar it notices. Unfortunately, the cube is about to be added to some scalding coffee! In $10$ seconds, it must return to its initial vertex, so it can get off and escape. If the probability the ant will avoid a tragic doom can be expressed as $\frac{a}{3^{10}}$ , where $a$ is a positive integer, find $a$. Clarification: The ant needs to be on its initial vertex in exactly $10$ seconds, no more or less. [b]p15.[/b] Raymond’s new My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Collector’s book arrived in the mail! The book’s pages measure $4\sqrt3$ inches by $12$ inches, and are bound on the longer side. If Raymond keeps one corner in the same plane as the book, what is the total area one of the corners can travel without ripping the page? If the desired area in square inches is $a\pi+b\sqrt{c}$ where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers and $c$ is squarefree, find $a + b + c$. PS. You should use hide for answers.

Ryan is learning number theory. He reads about the [i]Möbius function[/i] $\mu : \mathbb N \to \mathbb Z$, defined by $\mu(1)=1$ and \[ \mu(n) = -\sum_{\substack{d\mid n \\ d \neq n}} \mu(d) \] for $n>1$ (here $\mathbb N$ is the set of positive integers). However, Ryan doesn't like negative numbers, so he invents his own function: the [i]dubious function[/i] $\delta : \mathbb N \to \mathbb N$, defined by the relations $\delta(1)=1$ and \[ \delta(n) = \sum_{\substack{d\mid n \\ d \neq n}} \delta(d) \] for $n > 1$. Help Ryan determine the value of $1000p+q$, where $p,q$ are relatively prime positive integers satisfying \[ \frac{p}{q}=\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{\delta(15^k)}{15^k}. \] [i]Proposed by Michael Kural[/i]

We'll call a positive integer "almost prime", if it is not divisible by any prime from the interval $[3,19]$. We'll call a number "very non-prime", if it has at least 2 primes from interval $[3,19]$ dividing it.

A [i]complete [/i] number is a $9$ digit number that contains each of the digits $1$ to $9$ exactly once. The [i]difference [/i] number of a number $N$ is the number you get by taking the differences of consecutive digits in $N$ and then stringing these digits together. For instance, the [i]difference [/i] number of $25143$ is equal to $3431$. The [i]complete [/i] number $124356879$ has the additional property that its [i]difference [/i] number, $12121212$, consists of digits alternating between $1$ and $2$. Determine all $a$ with $3 \le a \le 9$ for which there exists a [i]complete [/i] number $N$ with the additional property that the digits of its [i]difference[/i] number alternate between $1 $ and $a$.
