Problem 2

  • Paper
  • Answer

Let PP be a point chosen uniformly at random in the interior of the unit square with vertices at (0,0),(1,0),(1,1)(0,0), (1,0), (1,1), and (0,1)(0,1). The probability that the slope of the line determined by PP and the point (58,38)\left(\frac58, \frac38 \right) is greater than or equal to 12\frac12 can be written as mn\frac{m}{n}, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+nm+n.

Problem 5

  • Paper
  • Answer

For each positive integer nn, let f(n)f(n) be the sum of the digits in the base-four representation of nn and let g(n)g(n) be the sum of the digits in the base-eight representation of f(n)f(n). For example, f(2020)=f(1332104)=10=128f(2020) = f(133210_{\text{4}}) = 10 = 12_{\text{8}}, and g(2020)=the digit sum of 128=3g(2020) = \text{the digit sum of }12_{\text{8}} = 3. Let NN be the least value of nn such that the base-sixteen representation of g(n)g(n) cannot be expressed using only the digits 00 through 99. Find the remainder when NN is divided by 10001000.

  • Answer

While watching a show, Ayako, Billy, Carlos, Dahlia, Ehuang, and Frank sat in that order in a row of six chairs. During the break, they went to the kitchen for a snack. When they came back, they sat on those six chairs in such a way that if two of them sat next to each other before the break, then they did not sit next to each other after the break. Find the number of possible seating orders they could have chosen after the break.

  • Answer

Let P(x)=x2−3x−7P(x) = x^2 - 3x - 7, and let Q(x)Q(x) and R(x)R(x) be two quadratic polynomials also with the coefficient of x2x^2 equal to 11. David computes each of the three sums P+QP + Q, P+RP + R, and Q+RQ + R and is surprised to find that each pair of these sums has a common root, and these three common roots are distinct. If Q(0)=2Q(0) = 2, then R(0)=mnR(0) = \frac{m}{n}, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+nm + n.

Let mm and nn be odd integers greater than 1.1. An m×nm\times n rectangle is made up of unit squares where the squares in the top row are numbered left to right with the integers 11 through nn, those in the second row are numbered left to right with the integers n+1n + 1 through 2n2n, and so on. Square 200200 is in the top row, and square 20002000 is in the bottom row. Find the number of ordered pairs (m,n)(m,n) of odd integers greater than 11 with the property that, in the m×nm\times n rectangle, the line through the centers of squares 200200 and 20002000 intersects the interior of square 10991099.

  • Answer

For a real number xx let ⌊x⌋\lfloor x\rfloor be the greatest integer less than or equal to xx, and define {x}=x−⌊x⌋\{x\} = x - \lfloor x \rfloor to be the fractional part of xx. For example, {3}=0\{3\} = 0 and {4.56}=0.56\{4.56\} = 0.56. Define f(x)=x{x}f(x)=x\{x\}, and let NN be the number of real-valued solutions to the equation f(f(f(x)))=17f(f(f(x)))=17 for 0≤x≤20200\leq x\leq 2020. Find the remainder when NN is divided by 10001000.
