Problem 1

Suppose n is a positive integer. Let f(n) be the sum of the distinct positive prime divisors of n less than 50 (e.g. f(12) = 2+3 = 5 and f(101) = 0). Evaluate the remainder when f(1)+f(2)+\cdots+f(99) is divided by 1000.

Solution

Problem 2

A circle \omega_1 of radius 6\sqrt{2} is internally tangent to a larger circle \omega_2 of radius 12\sqrt{2} such that the center of \omega_2 lies on \omega_1. A diameter AB of \omega_2 is drawn tangent to \omega_1. A second line l is drawn from B tangent to \omega_1. Let the line tangent to \omega_2 at A intersect l at C. Find the area of \triangle ABC.

Solution

Problem 3

A \emph hailstone number n = d_1d_2 \cdots d_k, where d_i denotes the ith digit in the base-10 representation of n for i = 1,2, \ldots,k, is a positive integer with distinct nonzero digits such that d_m < d_{m-1} if m is even and d_m > d_{m-1} if m is odd for m = 1,2,\ldots,k (and d_0 = 0). Let a be the number of four-digit hailstone numbers and b be the number of three-digit hailstone numbers. Find a+b.

Solution

Problem 4

Let m and n be integers such that 1 < m \le 10 and m < n \le 100. Given that x = \log_m{n} and y = \log_n{m}, find the number of ordered pairs (m,n) such that \displaystyle \lfloor x \rfloor = \lceil y \rceil. (\lfloor a \rfloor is the greatest integer less than or equal to a and \lceil a \rceil is the least integer greater than or equal to a).

Solution

Problem 5

Find the largest prime divisor of 25^2+72^2.

Solution

Problem 6

P_1, P_2, and P_3 are polynomials defined by:

P_1(x) = 1+x+x^3+x^4+\cdots+x^{96}+x^{97}+x^{99}+x^{100}
P_2(x) = 1-x+x^2-\cdots-x^{99}+x^{100}
P_3(x) = 1+x+x^2+\cdots+x^{66}+x^{67}

Find the number of distinct complex roots of P_1 \cdot P_2 \cdot P_3.

Solution

Problem 7

A coin of radius 1 is flipped onto an 500 \times 500 square grid divided into 2500 equal squares. Circles are inscribed in n of these 2500 squares. Let P_n be the probability that, given that the coin lands completely within one of the smaller squares, it also lands completely within one of the circles. Let P be the probability that, when flipped onto the grid, the coin lands completely within one of the smaller squares. Let n_0 smallest value of n such that P_n > P. Find the value of \displaystyle \left\lfloor \frac{n_0}{3} \right\rfloor.

Solution

Problem 8

Let P be a polyhedron with 37 faces, all of which are equilateral triangles, squares, or regular pentagons with equal side length. Given there is at least one of each type of face and there are twice as many pentagons as triangles, what is the sum of all the possible number of vertices P can have?

Solution

Problem 9

13 nondistinguishable residents are moving into 7 distinct houses in Conformistville, with at least one resident per house. In how many ways can the residents be assigned to these houses such that there is at least one house with 4 residents?

Solution

Problem 10

Find the smallest positive integer n such that \displaystyle {2n \choose n} is divisible by all the primes between 10 and 30.

Solution

Problem 11

Let A be a subset of consecutive elements of S = \{n, n+1, \ldots, n+999\} where n is a positive integer. Define \displaystyle \mu(A) = \sum_{k \in A} \tau(k), where \tau(k) = 1 if k has an odd number of divisors and \tau(k) = 0 if k has an even number of divisors. For how many n \le 1000 does there exist an A such that |A| = 620 and \mu(A) = 11? (|X| denotes the cardinality of the set X, or the number of elements in X)

Solution

Problem 12

Let ABC be a triangle with AB = 13, BC = 14, and AC = 15. Let D be the foot of the altitude from A to BC and E be the point on BC between D and C such that BD = CE. Extend AE to meet the circumcircle of ABC at F. If the area of triangle FAC is \displaystyle \frac{m}{n}, where m and n are relatively prime positive integers, find m+n.

Solution

Problem 13

Let S be the set of positive integers with only odd digits satisfying the following condition: any x \in S with n digits must be divisible by 5^n. Let A be the sum of the 20 smallest elements of S. Find the remainder upon dividing A by 1000.

Solution

Problem 14

Let ABC be a triangle such that AB = 68, BC = 100, and \displaystyle CA = 112. Let H be the orthocenter of \triangle ABC (intersection of the altitudes). Let D be the midpoint of BC, E be the midpoint of CA, and F be the midpoint of AB. Points X, Y, and Z are constructed on HD, HE, and HF, respectively, such that D is the midpoint of XH, E is the midpoint of YH, and F is the midpoint of ZH. Find AX+BY+CZ.

Solution

Problem 15

2006 colored beads are placed on a necklace (circular ring) such that each bead is adjacent to two others. The beads are labeled a_0, a_1, \ldots, a_{2005} around the circle in order. Two beads a_i and a_j, where i and j are non-negative integers, satisfy a_i = a_j if and only if the color of a_i is the same as the color of a_j. Given that there exists no non-negative integer m < 2006 and positive integer n < 1003 such that a_m = a_{m-n} = a_{m+n}, where all subscripts are taken \pmod{2006}, find the minimum number of different colors of beads on the necklace.
