On a party, there are 6 boys and a number of girls. Two of the girls know exactly four boys each and the remaining girls know exactly two boys each. None of the boys know more than three girls. (We assume that if $ A$ knows $ B$, then $ B$ will also know $ A$). Then, the greatest possible number of girls on the party is
$ \text{(A)}\ 6 \qquad \text{(B)}\ 7 \qquad \text{(C)}\ 8 \qquad \text{(D)}\ 9 \qquad \text{(E)}\ \text{10 or more}$

We have a regular $n{}$-gon, with $n\geqslant 4$. We consider the arrangements of $n{}$ numbers on its vertices, each of which is equal to 1 or 2. For each such arrangement $K{}$, we find the number of odd sums among all sums of numbers in several consecutive vertices. This number is denoted by $\alpha(K)$.
[list=a]
[*]Find the largest possible value of $\alpha(K)$.
[*]Find the number of arrangements for which $\alpha(K)$ takes this largest possible value.

Let $\omega_1,\omega_2$ be two non-intersecting circles, with circumcenters $O_1,O_2$ respectively, and radii $r_1,r_2$ respectively where $r_1 < r_2$. Let $AB,XY$ be the two internal common tangents of $\omega_1,\omega_2$, where $A,X$ lie on $\omega_1$, $B,Y$ lie on $\omega_2$. The circle with diameter $AB$ meets $\omega_1,\omega_2$ at $P$ and $Q$ respectively. If $$\angle AO_1P+\angle BO_2Q=180^{\circ},$$ find the value of $\frac{PX}{QY}$ (in terms of $r_1,r_2$).

Let $p(x, y)$ and $q(x, y)$ be polynomials in two variables such that for $x \ge 0, y \ge 0$ the following conditions hold:
$(i) p(x, y)$ and $q(x, y)$ are increasing functions of $x$ for every fixed $y$.
$(ii) p(x, y)$ is an increasing and $q(x)$ is a decreasing function of $y$ for every fixed $x$.
$(iii) p(x, 0) = q(x, 0)$ for every $x$ and $p(0, 0) = 0$.
Show that the simultaneous equations $p(x, y) = a, q(x, y) = b$ have a unique solution in the set $x \ge 0, y \ge 0$ for all $a, b$ satisfying $0 \le b \le a$ but lack a solution in the same set if $a < b$.

Every officially published book used to have an ISBN code (International Standard Book Number) which consisted of $10$ symbols. Such code looked like this: $$a_1a_2 . . . a_9a_{10}$$ with $a_1, . . . , a_9 \in \{0, 1, . . . , 9\}$ and $a_{10} \in \{0, 1, . . . , 9, X\}$. The symbol $X$ stood for the number $10$. With a valid ISBN code was
$$a_1 + 2a2 + . . . + 9a_9 + 10a_{10}$$ a multiple of $11$. Prove the following statements.
(a) If one symbol is changed in a valid ISBN code, the result is no valid ISBN code.
(b) When two different symbols swap places in a valid ISBN code then the result is not a valid ISBN.

Real function $f$ [b]generates[/b] real function $g$ if there exists a natural $k$ such that $f^k=g$ and we show this by $f \rightarrow g$. In this question we are trying to find some properties for relation $\rightarrow$, for example it's trivial that if $f \rightarrow g$ and $g \rightarrow h$ then $f \rightarrow h$.(transitivity)
(a) Give an example of two real functions $f,g$ such that $f\not = g$ ,$f\rightarrow g$ and $g\rightarrow f$.
(b) Prove that for each real function $f$ there exists a finite number of real functions $g$ such that $f \rightarrow g$ and $g \rightarrow f$.
(c) Does there exist a real function $g$ such that no function generates it, except for $g$ itself?
(d) Does there exist a real function which generates both $x^3$ and $x^5$?
(e) Prove that if a function generates two polynomials of degree 1 $P,Q$ then there exists a polynomial $R$ of degree 1 which generates $P$ and $Q$.

Max has $2015$ jars labeled with the numbers $1$ to $2015$ and an unlimited supply of coins.
Consider the following starting configurations:
(a) All jars are empty.
(b) Jar $1$ contains $1$ coin, jar $2$ contains $2$ coins, and so on, up to jar $2015$ which contains $2015$ coins.
(c) Jar $1$ contains $2015$ coins, jar $2$ contains $2014$ coins, and so on, up to jar $2015$ which contains $1$ coin.
Now Max selects in each step a number $n$ from $1$ to $2015$ and adds $n$ to each jar [i]except to the jar $n$[/i].
Determine for each starting configuration in (a), (b), (c), if Max can use a finite, strictly positive number of steps to obtain an equal number of coins in each jar.
