In a coordinate system there are drawn the graphs of the functions $y=ax+b$ and $y=bx+a, (a\neq b)$. Their intersection is marked with red and their intersections with the $Oy$ axis are marked with blue. Everything is erased except the marked points. Using only a ruler and a compass, find the origin of the coordinate system.

Alice and Bob play a game, in which they take turns drawing segments of length $1$ in the Euclidean plane. Alice begins, drawing the first segment, and from then on, each segment must start at the endpoint of the previous segment. It is not permitted to draw the segment lying over the preceding one. If the new segment shares at least one point - except for its starting point - with one of the previously drawn segments, one has lost. a) Show that both Alice and Bob could force the game to end, if they don’t care who wins. b) Is there a winning strategy for one of them?

Triangle $ABC$ is an isosceles right triangle with $AB=AC=3$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of hypotenuse $\overline{BC}$. Points $I$ and $E$ lie on sides $\overline{AC}$ and $\overline{AB}$, respectively, so that $AI>AE$ and $AIME$ is a cyclic quadrilateral. Given that triangle $EMI$ has area $2$, the length $CI$ can be written as $\frac{a-\sqrt{b}}{c}$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are positive integers and $b$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. What is the value of $a+b+c$? $ \textbf{(A) }9 \qquad \textbf{(B) }10 \qquad \textbf{(C) }11 \qquad \textbf{(D) }12 \qquad \textbf{(E) }13 \qquad $

On the plane is a triangle with red vertices and a triangle with blue vertices. $O$ is a point inside both triangles such that the distance from $O$ to any red vertex is less than the distance from $O$ to any blue vertex. Can the three red vertices and the three blue vertices all lie on the same circle?

(b) Can you arrange these numbers so it works both clockwise and counterclockwise. [b]p2.[/b] A girl has a box with $1000$ candies. Outside the box there is an infinite number of chocolates and muffins. A girl may replace: $\bullet$ two candies in the box with one chocolate bar, $\bullet$ two muffins in the box with one chocolate bar, $\bullet$ two chocolate bars in the box with one candy and one muffin, $\bullet$ one candy and one chocolate bar in the box with one muffin, $\bullet$ one muffin and one chocolate bar in the box with one candy. Is it possible that after some time it remains only one object in the box?
