A continuous function \(f\) has the following properties:
1. \(f\) is defined on the entire number line;
2. \(f\) at each point has a derivative (and thus the graph of f at each point has a unique tangent);
3. the graph of the function \(f\) does not contain points for which one of the coordinates is rational and the other is irrational.
Does it follow that the graph of \(f\) is a straight line?
Solve the equation: \((x^3 - 2) (2^{\sin x} - 1) + (2^{x^3} - 4) \sin x = 0\).
A row of 4 coins lies on the table. Some of the coins are real and some of them are fake (the ones which weigh less than the real ones). It is known that any real coin lies to the left of any false coin. How can you determine whether each of the coins on the table is real or fake, by weighing once using a balance scale?
Seven triangular pyramids stand on the table. For any three of them, there is a horizontal plane that intersects them along triangles of equal area. Prove that there is a plane intersecting all seven pyramids along triangles of equal area.
Prove that for all \(x\), \(0 < x < \pi /3\), we have the inequality \(\sin 2x + \cos x > 1\).
The polynomial \(P (x)\) of degree \(n\) has \(n\) distinct real roots.
What is the largest number of its coefficients that can be equal to zero?
We call a number \(x\) rational if it can be represented as \(x=\frac{p}{q}\) for coprime integers \(p\) and \(q\). Otherwise we call the number irrational.
Non-zero numbers \(a\) and \(b\) satisfy the equality \(a^2b^2 (a^2b^2 + 4) = 2(a^6 + b^6)\). Prove that at least one of them is irrational.
The sum of the positive numbers \(a, b, c\) is \(\pi / 2\). Prove that \(\cos a + \cos b + \cos c > \sin a + \sin b + \sin c\).
Prove that for each \(x\) such that \(\sin x \neq 0\), there is a positive integer \(n\) such that \(|\sin nx| \geq \sqrt{3}/2\).
For what natural numbers \(n\) are there positive rational but not whole numbers \(a\) and \(b\), such that both \(a + b\) and \(a^n + b^n\) are integers?
