Since $\triangle Q R S$ is an isosceles right-angled triangle with $Q R=S R$, then $\angle R Q S=\angle R S Q=45^{\circ}$. Opposite angles are equal in measure, and so $\angle S U V=\angle P U Q=y^{\circ}$ and $\angle S V U=\angle R V T=y^{\circ}$.

Problem 3. Each student's mentor gave them 2 apples, and 19 apples remained in the basket. How many students and how many apples are there, if their total sum is 100?
Solution. If the number of students is denoted by $x$, then the basket will contain $2 x+19$ apples. From the condition that the total number of students and apples is 100, we get $x+2 x+19=100$. By solving the equation, we find that there are 27 students and 73 apples. \boxed{27}

If $\left(2^{a}\right)\left(2^{b}\right)=64$, then the mean (average) of $a$ and $b$ is (A) 12 (B) $\frac{5}{2}$ (C) $\frac{3}{2}$ (D) 3 (E) 8 Part B: Each correct answer is worth 6.
Since $\left(2^{a}\right)\left(2^{b}\right)=64$, then $2^{a+b}=64$, using an exponent law. Since $64=2^{6}$, then $2^{a+b}=2^{6}$ and so $a+b=6$. Therefore, the average of $a$ and $b$ is $\frac{1}{2}(a+b)=3$. ANSWER: (D) \boxed{3}

## Task A-2.1. Determine, if it exists, the real parameter $k$ such that the maximum value of the function $$ f_{1}(x)=(k-8) x^{2}-2(k-5) x+k-9 $$ is equal to the minimum value of the function $$ f_{2}(x)=(k-4) x^{2}-2(k-1) x+k+7 $$

Example 8 Given a cube $A B C D-A_{1} B_{1} C_{1} D_{1}$ with edge length $1, O$ is the center of the base $A B C D$, and points $M, N$ are the midpoints of edges $C C_{1}, A_{1} D_{1}$, respectively.

Analysis: As shown in Figure 6, the four faces of the required pyramid are oblique sections of a cube, making it difficult to find the volume. However, using Basic Conclusion 14, the volume of the tetrahedron $O-M N B_{1}$ can be converted to a multiple of the volume of the triangular pyramid $C_{1}-M N B_{1}$. The key...

1. [2] Find the number of positive integers $x$ less than 100 for which $$ 3^{x}+5^{x}+7^{x}+11^{x}+13^{x}+17^{x}+19^{x} $$ is prime.
Answer: 0 We claim that our integer is divisible by 3 for all positive integers $x$. Indeed, we have $$ \begin{aligned} 3^{x}+5^{x}+7^{x}+11^{x}+13^{x}+17^{x}+19^{x} & \equiv(0)^{x}+(-1)^{x}+(1)^{x}+(-1)^{x}+(1)^{x}+(-1)^{x}+(1)^{x} \\ & \equiv 3\left[(1)^{x}+(-1)^{x}\right] \\ & \equiv 0 \quad(\bmod 3) . \end{aligned}...

Example 4 Find all pairs of positive integers $(m, n)$ such that $m^{2}-4 n$ and $n^{2}-4 m$ are both perfect squares.
By symmetry, assume $m \leqslant n$. (1) If $m \leqslant n-1$, then $n^{2}-4 m \geqslant n^{2}-4 n+4=(n-2)^{2}$. Also, $n^{2}-4 m \leqslant(n-1)^{2}=n^{2}-2 n+1$, and the equality does not hold, so $$ n^{2}-4 m=(n-2)^{2} \Rightarrow n=m+1 \text {. } $$ Thus, $m^{2}-4 n=(m-2)^{2}-8=t^{2}\left(t \in \mathbf{N}_{+}\right...

Let $x$ be the distance from the vertex of the angle of $120^{\circ}$ to the nearest point of tangency, and apply the Law of Cosines.

Answer: By $30 \%$. Solution: By increasing the speed by $60 \%$, i.e., by 1.6 times, Ivan Semenovich reduced the time by 1.6 times and gained 40+25=65 minutes.
