Let $n$ be a positive integer with exactly twelve positive divisors $1=d_1 < \cdots < d_{12}=n$. We say $n$ is [i]trite[/i] if \[ 5 + d_6(d_6+d_4) = d_7d_4. \] Compute the sum of the two smallest trite positive integers. [i]Proposed by Brandon Wang[/i]

Tyler has two calculators, both of which initially display zero. The first calculators has only two buttons, $[+1]$ and $[\times 2]$. The second has only the buttons $[+1]$ and $[\times 4]$. Both calculators update their displays immediately after each keystroke. A positive integer $n$ is called [i]ambivalent[/i] if the minimum number of keystrokes needed to display $n$ on the first calculator equals the minimum number of keystrokes needed to display $n$ on the second calculator. Find the sum of all ambivalent integers between $256$ and $1024$ inclusive. [i]Proposed by Joshua Xiong[/i]

Consider all binary sequences (sequences consisting of 0’s and 1’s). In such a sequence the following four types of operation are allowed: (a) $010 \rightarrow 1$, (b) $1 \rightarrow 010$, (c) $110 \rightarrow 0$, and (d) $0 \rightarrow 110$. Determine if it is possible to obtain the sequence $100...0$ (with $2003$ zeroes) from the sequence $0...01$ (with $2003$ zeroes).

Let $n\ge 2$ be a positive integer. For any integer $a$, let $P_a(x)$ denote the polynomial $x^n+ax$. Let $p$ be a prime number and define the set $S_a$ as the set of residues mod $p$ that $P_a(x)$ attains. That is, $$S_a=\{b\mid 0\le b\le p-1,\text{ and there is }c\text{ such that }P_a(c)\equiv b \pmod{p}\}.$$Show that the expression $\frac{1}{p-1}\sum\limits_{a=1}^{p-1}|S_a|$ is an integer.

There are some gas stations on a circular highway. The total amount of gasoline in them is enough for two laps. Two drivers want to refuel at one station and starting from it, go in different directions, both of them completing an entire lap. Along the way, they can refuel at other stations, without necessarily taking all the gasoline. Prove that drivers will always be able to do this. [i]Proposed by I. Bogdanov[/i]

A cell is cut from a chessboard $8\, x\, 8$, after which an open broken line was built, which vertices are the centers of the remaining cells. Each segment of the broken line has a length $\sqrt{17}$ or $\sqrt{65}$. When is the number of such broken lines bigger – when the cut cell is $(1,2)$ or $(3,6)$? (The rows and columns on the board are numerated consecutively from 1 to 8.)

There are $n$ ($n \ge 4$) straight lines on the plane. For two straight lines $a$ and $b$, if there are at least two straight lines among the remaining $n-2$ lines that intersect both straight lines $a$ and $b$, then $a$ and $b$ are called a [i]congruent [/i] pair of staight lines, otherwise it is called a [i]separated[/i] pair of straight lines. If the number of [i]congruent [/i] pairs of straight line among $n$ straight lines is $2012$ more than the number of [i]separated[/i] pairs of straight line , find the smallest possible value of $n$ (the order of the two straight lines in a pair is not counted).

Let $P$ be a fixed point and $T$ a given triangle that contains the point $P$. Translate the triangle $T$ by a given vector $\bold{v}$ and denote by $T'$ this new triangle. Let $r, R$, respectively, be the radii of the smallest disks centered at $P$ that contain the triangles $T , T'$, respectively. Prove that $r + |\bold{v}| \leq 3R$ and find an example to show that equality can occur.
