Suppose that $F$ is a field with exactly $5^{14}$ elements. We say that a function $f:F \rightarrow F$ is [i]happy[/i], if, for all $x,y \in F$, $$\left(f(x+y)+f(x)\right)\left(f(x-y)+f(x)\right)=f(y^2)-f(x^2).$$
Compute the number of elements $z$ of $F$ such that there exist distinct happy functions $h_1$ and $h_2$ such that $h_1(z)=h_2(z).$

Two players in turn play a game. First Player has cards with numbers $2, 4, \ldots, 2000$ while Second Player has cards with numbers $1, 3, \ldots, 2001$. In each his turn, a player chooses one of his cards and puts it on a table; the opponent sees it and puts his card next to the first one. Player, who put the card with a larger number, scores 1 point. Then both cards are discarded. First Player starts. After $1000$ turns the game is over; First Player has used all his cards and Second Player used all but one. What are the maximal scores, that players could guarantee for themselves, no matter how the opponent would play?

Let $F_1=F_2=1$ and $F_n=F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$ for any integer $n\geq3$. For some integer $k>1$, Johnny converts $F_k$ kilometers to miles, then rounds to the nearest integer. Assume that $1$ mile is exactly $1.609344$ kilometers. Estimate the smallest value of $k$ such that Johnny [i]does not[/i] get that this is $F_{k-1}$ miles. An estimate of $E$ earns $2^{1-\left|A-E\right|}$ points, where $A$ is the actual answer.

[b]Q[/b]. $ABC$ is an acute - angled triangle with $\odot(ABC)$ and $\Omega$ as the circumcircle and incircle respectively. Let $D, E, F$ to be the respective intouch points on $\overline{BC}, \overline{CA}$ and $\overline{AB}$. Circle $\gamma_A$ is drawn internally tangent to sides $\overline{AC}, \overline{AB}$ and $\odot(ABC)$ at $X, Y$ and $Z$ respectively. Another circle $(\omega)$ is constructed tangent to $\overline{BC}$ at $\mathcal{T}_1$ and internally tangent to $\odot(ABC)$ at $\mathcal{T}_2$. A tangent is drawn from $A$ such that it touches $\omega$ at $W$ and meets $BC$ at $V$, with $V$ lying inside $\odot(ABC)$. Now if $\overline{EF}$ meets $\odot(BC)$ at $\mathcal{X}_1$ and $\mathcal{X}_2$, opposite to vertex $B$ and $C$ respectively, where $\odot(BC)$ denotes the circle with $BC$ as diameter, prove that the set of lines $\{\overline{B\mathcal{X}_1}, \overline{ZS}, \overline{C\mathcal{X}_2}, \overline{DU}, \overline{YX}, \overline{\mathcal{T}_1W} \}$ are concurrent where $S$ is the mid-point of $\widehat{BC}$ containing $A$ and $U$ is the anti-pode of $D$ with respect to $\Omega$. If the line joining that concurrency point and $A$ meets $\odot(ABC)$ at $N\not = A$ prove that $\overline{AD}, \overline{ZN}$ and $\gamma_A$ pass through a common point.
