On the plane are given $ k\plus{}n$ distinct lines , where $ k>1$ is integer and $ n$ is integer as well.Any three of these lines do not pass through the
same point . Among these lines exactly $ k$ are parallel and all the other $ n$ lines intersect each other.All $ k\plus{}n$ lines define on the plane a partition
of triangular , polygonic or not bounded regions. Two regions are colled different, if the have not common points
or if they have common points only on their boundary.A regions is called ''good'' if it contained in a zone between two parallel lines .
If in a such given configuration the minimum number of ''good'' regionrs is $ 176$ and the maximum number of these regions is $ 221$, find $ k$ and $ n$.

Let $m,n\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 1}$ and a rectangular board $m\times n$ sliced by parallel lines to the rectangle's sides into $mn$ unit squares. At moment $t=0$, there is an ant inside every square, positioned exactly in its centre, such that it is oriented towards one of the rectangle's sides. Every second, all the ants move exactly a unit following their current orientation; however, if two ants meet at the centre of a unit square, both of them turn $180^o$ around (the turn happens instantly, without any loss of time) and the next second they continue their motion following their new orientation. If two ants meet at the midpoint of a side of a unit square, they just continue moving, without changing their orientation.\\ \\
Prove that, after finitely many seconds, some ant must fall off the table.\\ \\

$A$ and $B$ are two cylindrical containers that contain water. The height of the water at$ A$ is $1000$ cm and at $B$, $350$ cm. Using a pump, water is transferred from $A$ to $B$. It is noted that, in container $A$, the height of the water decreases $4$ cm per minute and in $B$ it increases $9$ cm per minute. After how much time, since the pump was started, will the heights at $A$ and $B$ be the same?
