How many pairs of consecutive positive perfect squares have a difference of less than or equal to $2023$? $\textbf{(A) } 674 \qquad \textbf{(B) } 1011 \qquad \textbf{(C) } 1010 \qquad \textbf{(D) } 2019 \qquad \textbf{(E) } 2017$
$P_k(n) $ is the product of all positive divisors of $n$ that are divisible by $k$ (the empty product is equal to $1$). Show that $P_1(n)P_2(n)\cdots P_n(n)$ is a perfect square, for any positive integer $n$.
Represent for $\mathbb {Z}$ the set of all integers. Find all of the functions ${f:}$ $ \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}$ such that for any ${x,y}$ integers, they satisfy: ${f(x + f(y)) = f(x) - y.}$

If $x$ cows give $x+1$ cans of milk in $x+2$ days, how many days will it take $x+3$ cows to give $x+5$ cans of milk? $\textbf{(A) }\frac{x(x+2)(x+5)}{(x+1)(x+3)}\qquad\textbf{(B) }\frac{x(x+1)(x+5)}{(x+2)(x+3)}\qquad$ $\textbf{(C) }\frac{(x+1)(x+3)(x+5)}{x(x+2)}\qquad\textbf{(D) }\frac{(x+1)(x+3)}{x(x+2)(x+5)}\qquad \textbf{(E) }\text{none of these}$
A number $N_k$ is defined as [i]periodic[/i] if it is composed in number base $N$ of a repeated $k$ times . Prove that $7$ divides to infinite periodic numbers of the set $N_1, N_2, N_3,...$
Let $a_0, a_1, \ldots, a_9$ and $b_1 , b_2, \ldots,b_9$ be positive integers such that $a_9<b_9$ and $a_k \neq b_k, 1 \leq k \leq 8.$ In a cash dispenser/automated teller machine/ATM there are $n\geq a_9$ levs (Bulgarian national currency) and for each $1 \leq i \leq 9$ we can take $a_i$ levs from the ATM (if in the bank there are at least $a_i$ levs). Immediately after that action the bank puts $b_i$ levs in the ATM or we take $a_0$ levs. If we take $a_0$ levs from the ATM the bank doesn’t put any money in the ATM. Find all possible positive integer values of $n$ such that after finite number of takings money from the ATM there will be no money in it.
Given a quadrangular pyramid $SABCD$, the basis of which is a convex quadrilateral $ABCD$. It is known that the pyramid can be tangent to a sphere. Let $P$ be the point of contact of this sphere with the base $ABCD$. Prove that $\angle APB + \angle CPD = 180^o$.
A unit circle is centered at the origin and a tangent line to the circle is constructed in the first quadrant such that it makes an angle $5\pi/6$ with the $y$-axis. A series of circles centered on the $x$-axis are constructed such that each circle is both tangent to the previous circle and the original tangent line. Find the total area of the series of circles.
Chords $ AB$ and $ CD$ of a circle intersect at a point $ E$ inside the circle. Let $ M$ be an interior point of the segment $ EB$. The tangent line at $ E$ to the circle through $ D$, $ E$, and $ M$ intersects the lines $ BC$ and $ AC$ at $ F$ and $ G$, respectively. If \[ \frac {AM}{AB} \equal{} t, \] find $\frac {EG}{EF}$ in terms of $ t$.

A rectangular array has $m$ rows and $n$ columns, where $m < n$. Some cells of the array contain stars, in such a way that there is at least one star in each column. Prove that there is at least one such star such that the row containing it has more stars than the column containing it. (A. Razborov, Moscow)
Show that when a prime number is divided by $30$, the remainder is $1$ or a prime number. Shows that if it is divided by $60$ or $90$ the same thing does not happen.

Consider the harmonic sequence $\frac{2017}{4},\frac{2017}{7},\frac{2017}{10},\ldots$, where the reciprocals of the terms of the sequence form an arithmetic sequence. How many terms of this sequence are integers? [i]2017 CCA Math Bonanza Lightning Round #1.1[/i]
The numbers $\frac{1}{1}, \frac{1}{2}, ... , \frac{1}{2010}$ are written on a blackboard. A student chooses any two of the numbers, say $x$, $y$, erases them and then writes down $x + y + xy$. He continues to do this until only one number is left on the blackboard. What is this number?

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with $AB = 3$ and $AC = 4$. Suppose $M$ is the midpoint of segment $\overline{BC}$, $N$ is the midpoint of $\overline{AM}$, and $E$ and $F$ are the feet of the altitudes of $M$ onto $\overline{AB}$ and $\overline{AC}$, respectively. Further suppose $BC$ intersects $NE$ at $S$ and $NF$ at $T$, and let $X$ and $Y$ be the circumcenters of $\triangle MES$ and $\triangle MFT$, respectively. If $XY$ is tangent to the circumcircle of $\triangle ABC$, what is the area of $\triangle ABC$?
