From the four inequalities $2x > 70$, $x < 25$, $x > 5$, and $x > 5$, two are true and two are false. Find the value of $x$, given that it is an integer.
Given that $x$ is an integer, the inequalities can be rewritten as: $x>35, x>6$ and $x>5$. If it is not true that $x>5, x>6$ and $x>35$ - one is true and two are false. Since the third inequality implies the first two, and the second implies the first, there is only one option: the first inequality is true, and the ot...

2+ $[$ Prime numbers and their properties $]$ Four kids were discussing the answer to a problem. Kolya said: "The number is 9." Roman: "It's a prime number." Katya: "It's an even number." And Natasha said that the number is divisible by 15. One boy and one girl answered correctly, while the other two were wrong. ...
If Kolya answered correctly, then both girls were wrong, since the number 9 is odd and does not divide by 15. This means that Roman gave the correct answer. But a prime number does not divide by 15, and the only even prime number is 2. ## Answer 2.

## Solution Assume that the first candidate lied. This means that before his statement, the number of false statements was not equal to 1. After his statement, this number increased by 1, so it became not equal to 2. Therefore, the second candidate also lied. Continuing this reasoning, we get that all candidates lied,...

Since at any given moment the masses on the scales differed by at least 1 gram, in order for the opposite scale to outweigh, it is necessary to remove a weight of no less than two grams. Therefore, no student could have taken a 1-gram weight when leaving the class. ## Answer A 1-gram weight remained on the scales.

A total of $6 \cdot 5=30$ auditions are needed. No more than 9 auditions can take place in one concert. Therefore, there must be at least four concerts. Example: Musicians with numbers (4,5,6), (2,3,6), (1,3,5), and (1,2,4) perform in the concerts. ## Answer In 4 concerts.

Evaluation. From a fixed city $A$, one can directly reach no more than three cities, and with one transfer - no more than $3 \cdot 2=6$ additional cities. Thus, the total number of cities can be no more than ten. For an example of a network of 10 cities, see the figure below. ![](https://cdn.mathpix.com/cropped/2024_0...
