Hexadecimal (base-16) numbers are written using numeric digits $0$ through $9$ as well as the letters $A$ through $F$ to represent $10$ through $15$. Among the first $1000$ positive integers, there are $n$ whose hexadecimal representation contains only numeric digits. What is the sum of the digits of $n$? $ \textbf{(A) }17\qquad\textbf{(B) }18\qquad\textbf{(C) }19\qquad\textbf{(D) }20\qquad\textbf{(E) }21 $
A cube with side length $2$ is inscribed in a sphere. A second cube, with faces parallel to the first, is inscribed between the sphere and one face of the first cube. What is the length of a side of the smaller cube?
Circle $ O$ is inscribed in a trapzoid $ ABCD$, $ \angle{A}$ and $ \angle{B}$ are all acute angles. A line through $ O$ intersects $ AD$ at $ E$ and $ BC$ at $ F$, and satisfies the following conditions: (1) $ \angle{DEF}$ and $ \angle{CFE}$ are acute angles. (2) $ AE\plus{}BF\equal{}DE\plus{}CF$. Let $ AB\equal{}a$, $ BC\equal{}b$, $ CD\equal{}c$, then use $ a,b,c$ to express $ AE$.
Let $n>2$ be an integer. In a country there are $n$ cities and every two of them are connected by a direct road. Each road is assigned an integer from the set $\{1, 2,\ldots ,m\}$ (different roads may be assigned the same number). The [i]priority[/i] of a city is the sum of the numbers assigned to roads which lead to it. Find the smallest $m$ for which it is possible that all cities have a different priority.
Given a polynomial $f(x)=x^{2020}+\sum_{i=0}^{2019} c_ix^i$, where $c_i \in \{ -1,0,1 \}$. Denote $N$ the number of positive integer roots of $f(x)=0$ (counting multiplicity). If $f(x)=0$ has no negative integer roots, find the maximum of $N$.
Five consecutive positive integers have the property that the sum of the second, third, and fourth is a perfect square, while the sum of all five is a perfect cube.

Find the number of average couples $(a,b)$ for which $a,b<10^{10}$.
