Streets of Moscow are some circles (rings) with common center $O$ and some straight lines from center $O$ to external ring. Point $A,B$ - two crossroads on external ring. Three friends want to move from $A$ to $B$. Dima goes by external ring, Kostya goes from $A$ to $O$ then to $B$. Sergey says, that there is another way, that is shortest. Prove, that he is wrong.

PUMaCDonalds, a newly-opened fast food restaurant, has 5 menu items. If the first 4 customers each choose one menu item at random, the probability that the 4th customer orders a previously unordered item is $m/n$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.

A circle is drawn on the board, and $2n$ points are marked on it, dividing it into $2n$ equal arcs. Petya and Vasya are playing the following game. Petya chooses a positive integer $d \leqslant n$ and announces this number to Vasya. To win the game, Vasya needs to color all marked points using $n$ colors, such that each color is assigned to exactly two points, and for each pair of same-colored points, one of the arcs between them contains exactly $(d - 1)$ marked points. Find all $n$ for which Petya will be able to prevent Vasya from winning.

Let $f:[0,\infty)\to\mathbb R$ be a differentiable function with $|f(x)|\le M$ and $f(x)f'(x)\ge\cos x$ for $x\in[0,\infty)$, where $M>0$. Prove that $f(x)$ does not have a limit as $x\to\infty$.

In triangle $\vartriangle ABC$, we have marked points $A_1$ on side $BC, B_1$ on side $AC$, and $C_1$ on side $AB$ so that $AA_1$ is an altitude, $BB_1$ is a median, and $CC_1$ is an angle bisector. It is known that $\vartriangle A_1B_1C_1$ is equilateral. Prove that $\vartriangle ABC$ is equilateral too. (Note: A median connects a vertex of a triangle with the midpoint of the opposite side. Thus, for median $BB_1$ we know that $B_1$ is the midpoint of side $AC$ in $\vartriangle ABC$.)

A positive integer $N$ is called [i]balanced[/i], if $N=1$ or if $N$ can be written as a product of an even number of not necessarily distinct primes. Given positive integers $a$ and $b$, consider the polynomial $P$ defined by $P(x)=(x+a)(x+b)$. (a) Prove that there exist distinct positive integers $a$ and $b$ such that all the number $P(1)$, $P(2)$,$\ldots$, $P(50)$ are balanced. (b) Prove that if $P(n)$ is balanced for all positive integers $n$, then $a=b$. [i]Proposed by Jorge Tipe, Peru[/i]

A large square region is paved with $n^2$ gray square tiles, each measuring $s$ inches on a side. A border $d$ inches wide surrounds each tile. The figure below shows the case for $n = 3$. When $n = 24$, the $576$ gray tiles cover $64\%$ of the area of the large square region. What is the ratio $\frac{d}{s}$ for this larger value of $n$?

The Duke of Squares left to his three sons a square estate, $100\times 100$ square miles, made up of ten thousand $1\times 1$ square mile square plots. The whole estate was divided among his sons as follows. Each son was assigned a point inside the estate. A $1\times 1$ square plot was bequeathed to the son whose assigned point was closest to the center of this square plot. Is it true that, irrespective of the choice of assigned points, each of the regions bequeathed to the sons is connected (that is, there is a path between every two of its points, never leaving the region)?
