12 teams played a volleyball tournament in one round. Two teams scored exactly 7 wins.
Prove that there are teams \(A\), \(B\), \(C\) where \(A\) won against \(B\), \(B\) won against \(C\), and \(C\) won against \(A\).

a) There are 10 coins. It is known that one of them is fake (by weight, it is heavier than the real ones). How can you determine the counterfeit coin with three weighings on scales without weights?
b) How can you determine the counterfeit coin with three weighings, if there are 27 coins?
Find a natural number greater than one that occurs in the Pascal triangle a) more than three times; b) more than four times.
Prove there are no integer solutions for the equation \(3x^2 + 2 = y^2\).
For which \(n > 3\), can a set of weights with masses of \(1, 2, 3, ..., n\) grams be divided into three groups of equal mass?
A family went to the bridge at night. The dad can cross it in 1 minute, the mum in 2 minutes, the child in 5 minutes, and the grandmother in 10 minutes. They have one flashlight. The bridge only withstands two people. How can they cross the bridge in 17 minutes? (If two people cross, then they pass with the lower of the two speeds. They cannot pass along the bridge without a flashlight. They cannot shine the light from afar. They cannot carry anyone in their arms. They cannot throw the flashlight.)
