2018 Junior Regional Olympiad - FBH, 2

On blackboard is written $3$ digit number so all three digits are distinct than zero. Out of it, we made three $2$ digit numbers by crossing out first digit of original number, crossing out second digit of original number and crossing out third digit of original number.

Let $n>1$ be an integer. Given a simple graph $G$ on $n$ vertices $v_1, v_2, \dots, v_n$ we let $k(G)$ be the minimal value of $k$ for which there exist $n$ $k$-dimensional rectangular boxes $R_1, R_2, \dots, R_n$ in a $k$-dimensional coordinate system with edges parallel to the axes, so that for each $1\leq i<j\leq n$, $R_i$ and $R_j$ intersect if and only if there is an edge between $v_i$ and $v_j$ in $G$. Define $M$ to be the maximal value of $k(G)$ over all graphs on $n$ vertices. Calculate $M$ as a function of $n$.

2017 Taiwan TST Round 1, 6

There are $n \geq 3$ islands in a city. Initially, the ferry company offers some routes between some pairs of islands so that it is impossible to divide the islands into two groups such that no two islands in different groups are connected by a ferry route. After each year, the ferry company will close a ferry route between some two islands $X$ and $Y$. At the same time, in order to maintain its service, the company will open new routes according to the following rule: for any island which is connected to a ferry route to exactly one of $X$ and $Y$, a new route between this island and the other of $X$ and $Y$ is added. Suppose at any moment, if we partition all islands into two nonempty groups in any way, then it is known that the ferry company will close a certain route connecting two islands from the two groups after some years. Prove that after some years there will be an island which is connected to all other islands by ferry routes.

A not necessary nonplanar polygon in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is called [b]Grid Polygon[/b] if each of it's edges are parallel to one of the axes. (a) There's a right angle between each two neighbour sides of the grid polygon, the plane containing this angle could be parallel to either $xy$ plane, $yz$ plane, or $xz$ plane. Prove that parity of the number of the angles that the plane containing each of them is parallel to $xy$ plane is equal to parity of the number of the angles that the plane containing each of them is parallel to $yz$ plane and parity of the number of the angles that the plane containing each of them is parallel to $zx$ plane.

Bernardo chooses a three-digit positive integer $N$ and writes both its base-5 and base-6 representations on a blackboard. Later LeRoy sees the two numbers Bernardo has written. Treating the two numbers as base-10 integers, he adds them to obtain an integer $S$. For example, if $N=749$, Bernardo writes the numbers 10,444 and 3,245, and LeRoy obtains the sum $S=13,689$. For how many choices of $N$ are the two rightmost digits of $S$, in order, the same as those of $2N$? ${ \textbf{(A)}\ 5\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 10\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 15\qquad\textbf{(D}}\ 20\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 25 $
