Problem 1

A conference has 4747 people attending. One woman knows 1616 of the men who are attending, another knows 1717 , and so on up to the mm -th woman who knows all nn of the men who are attending. Find mm and nn .

Problem 2

For what values of mm does the equation x2+(2m+6)x+4m+12=0x^2 + (2m + 6)x + 4m + 12 = 0 has two real roots, both of them greater than −1-1 .

Problem 3

Solve the equation sin⁡3xcos⁡3x+cos⁡3xsin⁡3x=38\sin^3x \cos 3x + \cos^3x \sin 3x = \frac{3}{8} .

Problem 4

The tetrahedron S.ABCS.ABC has the faces SBCSBC and ABCABC perpendicular. The three angles at SS are all 60∘60^{\circ} and SB=SC=1SB = SC = 1 . Find the volume of the tetrahedron.

Problem 5

The triangle ABCABC has semiperimeter pp . Find the side length BCBC and the area SS in terms of ∠A\angle A , ∠B\angle B and pp . In particular, find SS if p≈23.6p \approx 23.6 , ∠A≈52∘42′\angle A \approx 52^{\circ}42' , ∠B≈46∘16′\angle B \approx 46^{\circ}16' .
