2024 Assara - South Russian Girl's MO, 1

There is a set of $2024$ cards. Each card on both sides is colored in one of three colors — red, blue or white, and for each card its two sides are colored in different colors. The cards were laid out on the table. The card [i]lies beautifully[/i] if at least one of two conditions is met: its upper side — red; its underside is blue. It turned out that exactly $150$ cards are lying beautifully. Then all the cards were turned over. Now some of the cards are lying beautifully on the table. How many of them can there be?

Let $n\ge3$ be an integer. Each row in an $(n-2)\times n$ array consists of the numbers 1,2,...,$n$ in some order, and the numbers in each column are all different. Prove that this array can be expanded into an $n\times n$ array such that each row and each column consists of the numbers 1,2,...,$n$.

In the figure below, you see three half-circles. The circle $C$ is tangent to two of the half-circles and to the line $PQ$ perpendicular to the diameter $AB$. The area of the shaded region is $39\pi$, and the area of the circle $C$ is $9\pi$. Find the length of the diameter $AB$.

Let $m$ and $n$ be natural numbers with $mn$ even. Jetze is going to cover an $m \times n$ board (consisting of $m$ rows and $n$ columns) with dominoes, so that every domino covers exactly two squares, dominos do not protrude or overlap, and all squares are covered by a domino. Merlin then moves all the dominoe color red or blue on the board. Find the smallest non-negative integer $V$ (in terms of $m$ and $n$) so that Merlin can always ensure that in each row the number squares covered by a red domino and the number of squares covered by a blue one dominoes are not more than $V$, no matter how Jetze covers the board.
