Do either (1) or (2): (1) Show that any solution $f(t)$ of the functional equation $$f(x+y)f(x-y)=f(x)^{2} +f(y)^{2} -1$$ for $x,y\in \mathbb{R}$ satisfies $$f''(t)= \pm c^{2} f(t)$$ for a constant $c$, assuming the existence and continuity of the second derivative. Deduce that $f(t)$ is one of the functions $$ \pm \cos ct, \;\;\; \pm \cosh ct.$$ (2) Let $(a_{i})_{i=1,...,n}$ and $(b_{i})_{i=1,...,n}$ be real numbers. Define an $(n+1)\times (n+1)$-matrix $A=(c_{ij})$ by $$ c_{i1}=1, \; \; c_{1j}= x^{j-1} \; \text{for} \; j\leq n,\; \; c_{1n+1}=p(x), \;\; c_{ij}=a_{i-1}^{j-1} \; \text{for}\; i>1, j\leq n,\;\; c_{in+1}=b_{i-1}\; \text{for}\; i>1.$$ The polynomial $p(x)$ is defined by the equation $\det A=0$. Let $f$ be a polynomial and replace $(b_{i})$ with $(f(b_{i}))$. Then $\det A=0$ defines another polynomial $q(x)$. Prove that $f(p(x))-q(x)$ is a multiple of $$\prod_{i=1}^{n} (x-a_{i}).$$

One thousand students participate in the $2011$ Canadian Closed Mathematics Challenge. Each student is assigned a unique three-digit identification number $abc,$ where each of $a, b$ and $c$ is a digit between $0$ and $9,$ inclusive. Later, when the contests are marked, a number of markers will be hired. Each of the markers will be given a unique two-digit identification number $xy,$ with each of $x$ and $y$ a digit between $0$ and $9,$ inclusive. Marker $xy$ will be able to mark any contest with an identification number of the form $xyA$ or $xAy$ or $Axy,$ for any digit $A.$ What is the minimum possible number of markers to be hired to ensure that all contests will be marked?

Suppose the circle with diameter $\overline{AP}$ intersects $\omega_P$ again at $M$, and line $AM$ intersects $\omega_P$ again at $X$. Similarly, suppose the circle with diameter $\overline{AQ}$ intersects $\omega_Q$ again at $N$, and line $AN$ intersects $\omega_Q$ again at $Y$. Prove that lines $MN$ and $XY$ are parallel. (Here, the points $P$ and $Q$ are [i]isogonal conjugates[/i] with respect to $\triangle ABC$ if the internal angle bisectors of $\angle BAC$, $\angle CBA$, and $\angle ACB$ also bisect the angles $\angle PAQ$, $\angle PBQ$, and $\angle PCQ$, respectively. For example, the orthocenter is the isogonal conjugate of the circumcenter.) [i]Proposed by Sammy Luo[/i]

The hospital leadership gave the following rules: a) Internships may not be conducted on two consecutive days. b) The fifth day of internship can only be done after four days counted since the fourth day of internship. Suppose the fourth day of internship is the date $20$, then the fifth day of internship can only be carried out at least the date $24$. Determine the many possible schedule options for the prospective doctor. p5.
