Problem 1

For an odd number n, we write n!!=n⋅(n−2)...3⋅1n!! = n\cdot (n-2)...3 \cdot 1 . How many different residues modulo 10001000 do you get from n!!n!! for n=1,3,5,…n= 1, 3, 5, … ?

Problem 2

The circumcentre of a triangle ABCABC is called OO . The points A′,B′A',B' and C′C' are the reflections of OO in BC,CABC, CA , and ABAB , respectively. Show that the three lines AA′,BB′AA' , BB' , and CC′CC' meet in a common point.

Problem 4

Find all polynomials PP such that P(x)+(20182)P(x+2)+...+(20182106)P(x+2016)+P(x+2018)=P(x) + \binom{2018}{2}P(x+2)+...+\binom{2018}{2106}P(x+2016)+P(x+2018)= =(20181)P(x+1)+(20183)P(x+3)+...+(20182105)P(x+2015)+(20182107)P(x+2017)=\binom{2018}{1}P(x+1)+\binom{2018}{3}P(x+3)+...+\binom{2018}{2105}P(x+2015)+\binom{2018}{2107}P(x+2017) for all real numbers xx .
