[b]p9.[/b] In some countries they decided to hold popular elections of the government. Two-thirds of voters in this country are urban and one-third are rural. The President must propose for approval a draft government of $100$ people. It is known that the same percentage of urban (rural) residents will vote for the project as there are people from the city (rural) in the proposed project. What is the smallest number of city residents that must be included in the draft government so that more than half of the voters vote for it?
[b]p10.[/b] Vasya and Petya play such a game on a $10 \times 10 board$. Vasya has many squares the size of one cell, Petya has many corners of three cells (fig.). They are walking one by one - first Vasya puts his square on the board, then Petya puts his corner, then Vasya puts another square, etc. (You cannot place pieces on top of others.) The one who cannot make the next move loses. Vasya claims that he can always win, no matter how hard Petya tries. Is Vasya right?

A subalgebra $\mathfrak{h}$ of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ is said to have the $\gamma$ property with respect to a scalar product ${\langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle}$ given on ${\mathfrak g}$ if ${X \in \mathfrak{h}}$ implies ${\langle [X,Y],X\rangle =0}$ for all ${Y \in \mathfrak g}$. Prove that the maximum dimension of ${\gamma}$-property subalgebras of a given ${2}$ step nilpotent Lie algebra with respect to a scalar product is independent of the selection of the scalar product.

A "labyrinth" is an $8 \times 8$ chessboard with walls between some neighboring squares. If a rook can traverse the entire board without jumping over the walls, the labyrinth is "good" ; otherwise it is "bad" . Are there more good labyrinths or bad labyrinths?
