1) Two nonnegative real numbers $x, y$ have constant sum $a$. Find the minimum value of $x^m + y^m$, where m is a given positive integer. 2) Let $m, n$ be positive integers and $k$ a positive real number. Consider nonnegative real numbers $x_1, x_2, . . . , x_n$ having constant sum $k$. Prove that the minimum value of the quantity $x^m_1+ ... + x^m_n$ occurs when $x_1 = x_2 = ... = x_n$.

2009 BAMO, 3

There are many sets of two different positive integers $a$ and $b$, both less than $50$, such that $a^2$ and $b^2$ end in the same last two digits. For example, $35^2 = 1225$ and $45^2 = 2025$ both end in $25$. What are all possible values for the average of $a$ and $b$? For the purposes of this problem, single-digit squares are considered to have a leading zero, so for example we consider $2^2$ to end with the digits 04, not $4$.

A positive integer $b$ and a sequence $a_0,a_1,a_2,\dots$ of integers $0\le a_i<b$ is given. It is known that $a_0\neq 0$ and the sequence $\{a_i\}$ is eventually periodic but has infinitely many nonzero terms. Let $S$ be the set of positive integers $n$ so that $n\mid (a_0a_1\dots a_n)_b$. Given that $S$ is infinite, show that there are infinitely many primes that divide at least one element of $S$. [i]Proposed by Carl Schildkraut and Holden Mui[/i]

Let $ABC$ be an obtuse triangle, with $AB$ being the largest side. Draw the angle bisector of $\measuredangle BAC$. Then, draw the perpendiculars to this angle bisector from vertices $B$ and $C$, and call their feet $P$ and $Q$, respectively. $D$ is the point in the line $BC$ such that $AD \perp AP$. Prove that the lines $AD$, $BQ$ and $PC$ are concurrent.

The Konigsberg School has assigned grades $1$ through $7$ to pods $A$ through $G$, one grade per pod. The school noticed that each pair of connected pods has been assigned grades differing by $2$ or more grade levels. (For example, grades $1$ and $2$ will not be in pods directly connected by a walkway.) What is the sum of the grade levels assigned to pods $C, E,$ and $F$? $\textbf{(A)}\ 12\qquad \textbf{(B)}\ 13\qquad \textbf{(C)}\ 14\qquad \textbf{(D)}\ 15\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ 16$\\

If $p$ is the probability that their convex hull is a hexagon, estimate $p$ in the form $0.abcdef$ where $a,b,c,d,e,f$ are decimal digits. (A [i]convex combination[/i] of points $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$ is a point of the form $\alpha_1x_1 + \alpha_2x_2 + \dots + \alpha_nx_n$ with $0 \leq \alpha_i \leq 1$ for all $i$ and $\alpha_1 + \alpha_2 + \dots + \alpha_n = 1$.
