For any integer $d > 0,$ let $f(d)$ be the smallest possible integer that has exactly $d$ positive divisors (so for example we have $f(1)=1, f(5)=16,$ and $f(6)=12$). Prove that for every integer $k \geq 0$ the number $f\left(2^k\right)$ divides $f\left(2^{k+1}\right).$

Through the center of gravity of the acute-angled triangle $ ABC $, lines are drawn perpendicular to the sides $ BC $, $ CA $, $ AB $, intersecting them at the points $ P $, $ Q $, $ R $, respectively. Prove that if $ |BP|\cdot |CQ| \cdot |AR| = |PC| \cdot |QA| \cdot |RB| $, then the triangle $ ABC $ is isosceles.
Note: According to Ceva's theorem, the assumed equality of products is equivalent to the fact that the lines $ AP $, $ BQ $, $ CR $ have a common point.

Given a triangle $ABC$, the perpendicular bisector of the side $AC$ intersects the angle bisector of the triangle $AK$ at the point $P$, $M$ - such a point that $\angle MAC = \angle PCB$, $\angle MPA = \angle CPK$, and points $M$ and $K$ lie on opposite sides of the line $AC$. Prove that the line $AK$ bisects the segment $BM$.

Wendy takes Honors Biology at school, a smallish class with only fourteen students (including Wendy) who sit around a circular table. Wendy's friends Lucy, Starling, and Erin are also in that class. Last Monday none of the fourteen students were absent from class. Before the teacher arrived, Lucy and Starling stretched out a blue piece of yarn between them. Then Wendy and Erin stretched out a red piece of yarn between them at about the same height so that the yarn would intersect if possible. If all possible positions of the students around the table are equally likely, let $m/n$ be the probability that the yarns intersect, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m+n$.

$ABCD$ is a regular tetrahedron with side length 1. Points $X,$ $Y,$ and $Z,$ distinct from $A,$ $B,$ and $C,$ respectively, are drawn such that $BCDX,$ $ACDY,$ and $ABDZ$ are also regular tetrahedra. If the volume of the polyhedron with faces $ABC,$ $XYZ,$ $BXC,$ $XCY,$ $CYA,$ $YAZ,$ $AZB,$ and $ZBX$ can be written as $\frac{a\sqrt{b}}{c}$ for positive integers $a,b,c$ with $\gcd(a,c) = 1$ and $b$ squarefree, find $a+b+c.$
