There is a test for the dangerous bifurcation virus that is $ 99\%$ accurate. In other words, if someone has the virus, there is a $ 99\%$ chance that the test will be positive, and if someone does not have it, then there is a $ 99\%$ chance the test will be negative. Assume that exactly $ 1\%$ of the general population has the virus. Given an individual that has tested positive from this test, what is the probability that he or she actually has the disease? Express your answer as a percentage.

Fix integers $n\geq 2$ and $1\leq m\leq n-1$. Let $a_0, a_1, \dots, a_n$ be non-negative real numbers satisfying $a_0+a_1+\dots +a_n=1$. Prove that, if $\sum_{k=0}^n a_kx^k < x^m$ for some $0<x<1$, then $$\sum_{k=0}^{m-1}(m-k)a_k < \sum_{k=m+1}^n (k-m)a_k.$$

2025 All-Russian Olympiad, 10.7

A competition consists of $25$ sports, each awarding one gold medal to a winner. $25$ athletes participate, each in all $25$ sports. There are also $25$ experts, each of whom must predict the number of gold medals each athlete will win. In each prediction, the medal counts must be non-negative integers summing to $25$. An expert is called competent if they correctly guess the number of gold medals for at least one athlete. What is the maximum number \( k \) such that the experts can make their predictions so that at least \( k \) of them are guaranteed to be competent regardless of the outcome? \\

Given two positive integers $x,y$, we define $z=x\,\oplus\,y$ to be the bitwise XOR sum of $x$ and $y$; that is, $z$ has a $1$ in its binary representation at exactly the place values where $x,y$ have differing binary representations. It is known that $\oplus$ is both associative and commutative. For example, $20 \oplus 18 = 10100_2 \oplus 10010_2 = 110_2 = 6$. Given a set $S=\{a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n\}$ of positive integers, we let $f(S) = a_1 \oplus a_2 \oplus a_3\oplus \dots \oplus a_n$. We also let $g(S)$ be the number of divisors of $f(S)$ which are at most $2018$ but greater than or equal to the largest element in $S$ (if $S$ is empty then let $g(S)=2018$). Compute the number of $1$s in the binary representation of $\displaystyle\sum_{S\subseteq \{1,2,\dots, 2018\}} g(S)$. [i]Proposed by Brandon Wang and Vincent Huang

Freddy the frog is jumping around the coordinate plane searching for a river, which lies on the horizontal line $y = 24$. A fence is located at the horizontal line $y = 0$. On each jump Freddy randomly chooses a direction parallel to one of the coordinate axes and moves one unit in that direction. When he is at a point where $y=0$, with equal likelihoods he chooses one of three directions where he either jumps parallel to the fence or jumps away from the fence, but he never chooses the direction that would have him cross over the fence to where $y < 0$. Freddy starts his search at the point $(0, 21)$ and will stop once he reaches a point on the river. Find the expected number of jumps it will take Freddy to reach the river.

Aurick has a cup, a right cone with a circular base of radius $\frac12$, filled with milk tea. The slant height of the cup is $1$, and the tea fills the cup $\frac12$ of the way up the cup’s side. Suppose that Aurick tips the cup just to the point of spilling, as shown in the diagram. The new slant height EA and the tilted tea surface’s major axis $ET$ form $\angle T EA$. Compute $\cos(\angle T EA)$. [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/e/e/76e12ee31ce4ba8a5daaf0f5538b98726a0d37.png[/img]
