Other problems

Problem 1

Determine all integers aa and bb , so that (a3+b)(a+b3)=(a+b)4(a^3+b)(a+b^3)=(a+b)^4

Problem 2

Solve the following equation for real numbers: 4−x4−(x−2)1+(x−5)(x−7)=5x−6−x22\sqrt{4-x\sqrt{4-(x-2)\sqrt{1+(x-5)(x-7)}}}=\frac{5x-6-x^2}{2} (all square roots are non negative)

Problem 3

Given is a convex quadrilateral ABCDABCD with ∠ADC=∠BCD>90∘\angle ADC=\angle BCD>90^{\circ} . Let EE be the point of intersection of the line ACAC with the parallel line to ADAD through BB and FF be the point of intersection of the line BDBD with the parallel line to BCBC through AA . Show that EFEF is parallel to CDCD

Problem 4

The sequence <xn>< x_n > is defined through: xn+1=(n2004+1n)xn2−n32004+1x_{n + 1} = \left(\frac {n}{2004} + \frac {1}{n}\right)x_n^2 - \frac {n^3}{2004} + 1 for n>0n > 0 Let x1x_1 be a non-negative integer smaller than 204204 so that all members of the sequence are non-negative integers. Show that there exist infinitely many prime numbers in this sequence.
