In an international meeting of $n \geq 3$ participants, 14 languages are spoken. We know that: - Any 3 participants speak a common language. - No language is spoken more that by the half of the participants. What is the least value of $n$?
Let $P, Q$ be points taken on the side $BC$ of a triangle $ABC$, in the order $B, P, Q, C$. Let the circumcircles of $\vartriangle PAB$, $\vartriangle QAC$ intersect at $M$ ($\ne A$) and those of $\vartriangle PAC, \vartriangle QAB$ at N.

Initially an urn contains 100 black marbles and 100 white marbles. Repeatedly, three marbles are removed from the urn and replaced from a pile outside the urn as follows: \[ \begin{tabular}{ccc} \textbf{\underline{MARBLES REMOVED}} & & \textbf{\underline{REPLACED WITH}} \\ 3 black & & 1 black \\ 2 black, 1 white & &1 black, 1 white\\ 1 black, 2 white & & 2 white \\ 3 white & & 1 black, 1 white \end{tabular} \] Which of the following sets of marbles could be the contents of the urn after repeated applications of this procedure? $ \textbf{(A)}\ \text{2 black marbles} $ $\textbf{(B)}\ \text{2 white marbles} $ $\textbf{(C)}\ \text{1 black marble} $ $\textbf{(D)}\ \text{1 black and 1 white marble} $ $\textbf{(E)}\ \text{1 white marble} $
The perpendicular bisector to side $AC$ of triangle $ABC$ intersects side $BC$ at point $M$ (see fig.). The bisector of angle $\angle AMB$ intersects the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ at point $K$. Prove that the line passing through the centers of the inscribed circles triangles $AKM$ and $BKM$, perpendicular to the bisector of angle $\angle AKB$.

In how many ways can you color the six sides of a cube in black or white? (Do note that the cube is unchanged when rotated?) A. 7 B. 10 C. 20 D. 30 E. 36
For positive real numbers $a, b$ and $c$, prove that $$\frac{a^3}{a^2 + ab + b^2} +\frac{b^3}{b^2 + bc + c^2} +\frac{c^3}{ c^2 + ca + a^2} \ge\frac{ a + b + c}{3}$$
Among families in a neighborhood in the city of Chimoio, a total of $144$ notebooks, $192$ pencils and $216$ erasers were distributed. This distribution was made so that the largest possible number of families was covered and everyone received the same number of each material, without having any leftovers. In this case, how many notebooks, pencils and erasers did each family receive?
Prove that if $a,b,c$ are the lengths of the sides of a triangle, then $\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}+\frac{1}{c} \leq \frac{1}{a+b-c}+\frac{1}{c+a-b}+\frac{1}{b+c-a}$.

Humberto and Luciano use the break between classes to have fun with the following game: Humberto writes a list of distinct positive integers on a green sheet of paper and hands it to Luciano. Luciano then writes on a board all the possible sums, without repetitions, of one or more different numbers written on the green sheet. For example, if Humberto writes $1$, $3$ and $4$ on the green sheet, Luciano will write $1$, $3$, $4$, $5$, $7$ and $8$ on the board. (a) Let $n$ be a positive integer. Determine all positive integers $k$ such that Humberto can write a list of $n$ numbers on the green sheet in order to guarantee that Luciano will write exactly $k$ numbers on the board. (b) Luciano now decides to write a list of $m$ distinct positive integers on a yellow sheet of paper. Determine the smallest positive integer $m$ such that it is possible for Luciano to write this list so that, for any list that Humberto writes on the green sheet, with a maximum of $2023$ numbers, not all the numbers on the yellow sheet will be written on the board.
