Consider an $N\times N$ matrix, where $N$ is an odd positive integer, such that all its entries are $-1,0$ or $1$. Consider the sum of the numbers in every line and every column. Prove that at least two of the $2N$ sums are equal.
Let $n$ be a positive integer number and let $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n$ be $n$ positive real numbers. Prove that $f : [0, \infty) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, defined by

I could not find a separate topic for this question and I need one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_point of course.

Matthew Casertano and Fox Chyatte make a series of bets. In each bet, Matthew sets the stake (the amount he wins or loses) at half his current amount of money. He has an equal chance of winning and losing each bet. If he starts with \$256, find the probability that after 8 bets, he will have at least \$50.

In parallelogram $ABCD,$ $E$ is a point on $\overline{AD}$ such that $\overline{CE} \perp \overline{AD},$ $F$ is a point on $\overline{CD}$ such that $\overline{AF} \perp \overline{CD},$ and $G$ is a point on $\overline{BC}$ such that $\overline{AG} \perp \overline{BC}.$ Let $H$ be a point on $\overline{GF}$ such that $\overline{AH} \perp \overline{GF},$ and let $J$ be the intersection of lines $EF$ and $BC.$ Given that $AH=8, AE=6,$ and $EF=4,$ compute $CJ.$

Positive integers $a, b$ and $c$ are all less than $2020$. We know that $a$ divides $b + c$, $b$ divides $a + c$ and $c$ divides $a + b$. How many such ordered triples $(a, b, c)$ are there?
Note: In an ordered triple, the order of the numbers matters, so the ordered triple $(0, 1, 2)$ is not the same as the ordered triple $(2, 0, 1)$.
Solve the following system for real $a , b, c, d, e$: \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{ccc} 3a & = & ( b + c+ d)^3 \\ 3b & = & ( c + d +e ) ^3 \\ 3c & = & ( d + e +a )^3 \\ 3d & = & ( e + a +b )^3 \\ 3e &=& ( a + b +c)^3. \end{array}\right. \]

\[\frac{{BM}}{{MN}} =\frac{({BC})^2}{({BN})^2}.\]
