1. Variant 1. Given two natural numbers. One number was increased by 3, and the other was decreased by 3. As a result, their product increased by 600. By how much will the product decrease if the opposite is done: the first number is decreased by 3, and the second is increased by 3?
Answer: 618. Solution: Let these numbers be $a$ and $b$. Then, according to the condition, $(a-3)(b+3)-ab=600$. Expanding the brackets: $ab+3a-3b-9-ab=600$, so $a-b=203$. We need to find the difference $ab-(a+3)(b-3)=$ $ab-ab+3a-3b+9=3(a-b)+9=3 \cdot 203+9=618$.

2. Variant 1. At the intersection of perpendicular roads, a highway from Moscow to Kazan and a road from Vladimir to Ryazan intersect. Dima and Tolya set out with constant speeds from Moscow to Kazan and from Vladimir to Ryazan, respectively. When Dima passed the intersection, Tolya had 900 meters left to reach it. Whe...
Answer: 1500. Solution: When Tolya has traveled 900 meters, Dima will have traveled 600 meters, so at the moment when Tolya is 900 meters from the intersection, Dima will be 1200 meters from the intersection. According to the Pythagorean theorem, the distance between the boys is 1500 meters.

3. Variant 1. Petya and Masha take candies from a box in turns. Masha took one candy, then Petya took 2 candies, Masha - 3 candies, Petya - 4 candies, and so on. When the number of candies in the box became less than needed for the next turn, all the remaining candies went to the one whose turn it was to take candies. ...
Answer: 110. Solution. Since $1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19=100101$, then Masha got the last candy. Then Petya took for himself $2+4+6+8+10+12+14+16+18+20=2(1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10)=110$ candies.

# 5. Option 1. It is known that the equations $x^{2}+(2 a-5) x+a^{2}+1=0$ and $x^{3}+(2 a-5) x^{2}+\left(a^{2}+1\right) x+a^{2}-4=0$ have common roots. Find the sum of these roots.
Answer: 9. Solution. The left side of the second equation is obtained from the left side of the first equation by multiplying by $x$ and adding the expression $a^{2}-4$. Therefore, $a^{2}-4=0$, from which $a=2$ or $a=-2$. If $a=2$, then the first equation has no roots. Therefore, $a=-2$, and then we get that the first...

Answer: 115. Solution: The sum of the given numbers is $10 \cdot 16=160$. Since all the numbers are distinct, the sum of the 9 smallest of them is no less than $1+2+\cdots+9=45$. Therefore, the largest number cannot be greater than $160-45=115$. This is possible: $(1+2+\cdots+9+115): 10=16$.

Answer. No. Solution. Suppose the opposite. Let $S_{m+1}$ be divisible by $2^{s}$ but not by $2^{s+1}$; then $s \geqslant 2$. This means that among the numbers $1,2, \ldots, m+1$ there is a number $a$ that is divisible by $2^{s}$. But then the number $a / 2$ does not exceed $m$ and is divisible by $2^{s-1}$; hence, $S...

It is known that Kol...
Answer: 1 minute. Solution. Draw the segment $D H$, as shown in Fig. 2. Kolya travels 1.2 times faster than Petya, so it would take him $12 / 1.2=10$ minutes to travel the route $A-B-C$.

6.4. Workers were laying a floor of size $n \times n$ using two types of tiles: $2 \times 2$ and $2 \times 1$. It turned out that they managed to completely cover the floor such that the same number of tiles of each type was used. For which $n$ could this have been possible? (Cutting tiles or overlapping them is not al...
Answer. For $n$ divisible by 6. Solution. Let the workers use $x$ tiles of each type. Then the area covered by the tiles is $4x + 2x = 6x = n^2$. Therefore, $n^2$ must be divisible by 2 and 3. Consequently, $n$ must be divisible by 2 and 3, and thus by 6. If $n$ is divisible by 6, then the floor can be laid. It is su...

Answer: 36. Solution. Let's number the children clockwise from 0 to 72. Initially, Santa Claus gives a candy to the child with number 1. Consider the sequence of numbers $a_{n}=1+2+3+\ldots+n$, where $n=1,2,3, \ldots, 2020$. Notice that the $n$-th candy is given to the child whose number is the remainder of the divis...

Task 10.2. How many roots does the equation $$ \overbrace{f(f(\ldots f}^{10 \text { times } f}(x) \ldots))+\frac{1}{2}=0 $$ have, where $f(x)=|x|-1$?
Answer: 20. Solution. Let $$ f_{n}(x)=\overbrace{f(f(\ldots(f}^{n \text { times } f}(x) \ldots)) $$ We will solve the equation $f_{10}(x)=-\frac{1}{2}$ graphically. We will use the fact that the graph of $y=f_{k}(x)$ can be obtained from the graph of $y=f_{k-1}(x)$, based on the relation $f_{k}(x)=\left|f_{k-1}(x)\...

Problem 10.3. Anton wrote three natural numbers $a, b$, and $c$ on the board. Ira drew three rectangles $a \times b, a \times c$, and $b \times c$ on the board. It turned out that the difference in the areas of one pair of rectangles is 1, and the difference in the areas of another pair of rectangles is 49. What can $a...
Answer: 16. Solution. Without loss of generality, we assume that $1=ac-ab=a(c-b)$, then $a=1$, $c=b+1$. Thus, the numbers written on the board were $1, b, b+1$. Notice that either $b(b+1)-b \cdot 1=49$, or $b(b+1)-(b+1) \cdot 1=49$. In the first case, we get $b^{2}=49, b=7$, and $a+b+c=1+b+(b+1)=16$. In the second ...

Answer: $38^{\circ}$. Solution. Let $a$ be the length of the lateral side of the trapezoid. Note that point $T$ lies on the perpendicular bisector of the bases of the trapezoid, that is, on its axis of symmetry.

Answer: 40 and 274. Solution. Let $p$ be the common root of the quadratic trinomials, which is a prime number. Then $p^{2}+a p+b=0$, from which we can conclude that $b \vdots p$. Now let's look at the second quadratic trinomial: $p^{2}+b p+1100=0$. From the fact that $b \vdots p$, we conclude that $1100=2^{2} \cdot 5...

Among the 11 people sitting after him in a clockwise direction, there are at least 3 knights, which contradicts the problem's condition. Next...

Answer: 146. Solution. First, we will show that the first bandit can get at least 146 coins. His strategy will be to put 14 coins in each bag. First, note that he will always be able to do this: since $21 \cdot 14=294$, he will do this at least 21 times, and when the coins start to run out, the process will certainly ...

Answer: 91. Solution. Let's consider Sasha's statements. If his second statement that the number is less than 27 is true, then Borya's first statement is definitely false, so the number must end in 8. The only two-digit number that meets these conditions is 18, but then none of Andrei's statements are true. Contradict...

Answer: 374. Solution. Obviously, $b \neq 1$. Let $p$ be a prime divisor of the number $b$; then $p \geqslant 11$, since $b$ is coprime with $210=2 \cdot 3 \cdot 5 \cdot 7$. Since $a^{a}$ is divisible by $b^{b}$, which is divisible by $p$, then $a$ is also divisible by $p$. From this, it immediately follows that the n...
