Given a board (divided into squares) of the size: a) \(10\times 12\), b) \(9\times 10\), c) \(9\times 11\), consider the game with two players where: in one turn a player is allowed to cross out any row or any column if there is at least one square not crossed out. The loser is the one who cannot make a move. Is there a winning strategy for one of the players?
In a group of friends, each two people have exactly five common acquaintances. Prove that the number of pairs of friends is divisible by 3.
Prove that the equation \[a_1 \sin x + b_1 \cos x + a_2 \sin 2x + b_2 \cos 2x + \dots + a_n \sin nx + b_n \cos nx = 0\] has at least one root for any values of \(a_1 , b_1, a_2, b_2, \dots, a_n, b_n\).
At a round table, 10 boys and 15 girls were seated. It turned out that there are exactly 5 pairs of boys sitting next to each other.
How many pairs of girls are sitting next to each other?
Of 11 balls, 2 are radioactive. For any set of balls in one check, you can find out if there is at least one radioactive ball in it (but you cannot tell how many of them are radioactive). Is it possible to find both radioactive balls in 7 checks?
Solve the equation \(2x^x = \sqrt {2}\) for positive numbers.
Find the first 99 decimal places in the number expansion of \((\sqrt{26} + 5)^{99}\).
Let \(M\) be a finite set of numbers. It is known that among any three of its elements there are two, the sum of which belongs to \(M\).
What is the largest number of elements in \(M\)?
Someone arranged a 10-volume collection of works in an arbitrary order. We call a “disturbance” a situation where there are two volumes for which a volume with a large number is located to the left. For this volume arrangement, we call the number \(S\) the number of all of the disturbances. What values can \(S\) take?
Let \(f\) be a continuous function defined on the interval \([0; 1]\) such that \(f (0) = f (1) = 0\). Prove that on the segment \([0; 1]\) there are 2 points at a distance of 0.1 at which the function \(f 4(x)\) takes equal values.
