1. The lengths of the sides of a right-angled triangle are expressed by natural numbers. Prove that at least one of the sides is divisible by 2, and at least one of the sides is divisible by 3.
Solution. Let $a$ and $b$ be the legs, and $c$ be the hypotenuse. Then $b^{2}=c^{2}-a^{2}=(c-a)(c+a)$. Consider the "worst" of the possible cases. If $\boldsymbol{c}$ and $\boldsymbol{a}$ are both odd, then their difference and sum are even, hence $b^{2}$ is even, and $\boldsymbol{b}$ is even. If $a$ and $b$ are bo...

But then it is divisible by 3, and thus the number $n$ itself is divisible by 3, since 3 is a prime. Then $n^{2}+3$ gives a rema...

10.3. $\left(a_{n}\right)$ is an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 1. It is known that $\mathrm{S}_{2022}$ is the smallest among all $S_{n}$ (less than the sum of the first $n$ terms for any other value of n). What values can the first term of the progression take?
Answer: $a_{1}$ belongs to the interval ( $-2022 ; -2021$ ). Solution. Since the difference of the progression is positive, the progression is increasing. Therefore, the described situation is possible if and only if the members of the progression from the first to the 2022nd are negative, and starting from the 2023rd...

10.4. Can the sum of 100 consecutive natural numbers end with the same digit as the sum of the next 98 numbers?
Answer: It cannot. First solution. Note that the sum of 100 consecutive natural numbers is an even number, as it contains exactly 50 odd addends. The sum of 98 consecutive natural numbers is an odd number, as it contains exactly 49 odd addends. Therefore, these sums end in digits of different parity. Second solution....

Answer: 750 g. Solution. First method (solving "from the end"). 1) $90+120=210$ (g) of the cake remained after Fröken Bok ate $30\%$ of the remainder. Since Fröken Bok ate $30\%$ of the remainder, 210 g is $70\%$ of the remainder. 2) $210 \div 0.7 = 300$ (g) of the cake was left before Fröken Bok started her lunch. ...

If Tanya's number is subtracted from Dan's, the result is the number $\frac{3}{7}$. Did anyone make a mistake?
Answer: one of them must have made a mistake. Solution. Let the numbers on the board be $a, b, c, d, e, f$ and $g$, with $a<b<c<d<e<f<g$. Then Tanya's number is $\frac{a+b+c+d+e+f+g}{7}$, and Danya's number is $d$. From the problem statement, it follows that $\frac{a+b+c+d+e+f+g}{7}-d=\frac{3}{7}$, which means $a+b+c+...

Solution. Apply the triangle inequality to $\triangle ABC$ and to $\triangle ACD$: for the first, we will have that $AB + BC > AC$, that is, $AC < AB + BC = 11$; for the second, we will have that $AC + CD > AD$, that is, $AC > CD - DA = 9$.

# Solution: Let's extend the bisector $A E$ until it intersects with line $B C$ (denote the intersection point as $F$). Since $\angle A B C$ is a right angle and $\angle F A B=45^{\circ}$, then $\angle A F B=45^{\circ}$, so $F A B$ is an isosceles right triangle, and $A B=B F$.

10.2. Vasya writes down a sequence of numbers: $a_{1}=1, a_{2}=1, \ldots, a_{n+1}=1+\frac{a_{n-1}}{a_{n}}$ for $n \geq 2$. He noticed that $a_{5}>2$, $a_{6}<2$, $a_{7}>2$, $a_{8}<2$ and made the following hypothesis: all terms of the sequence with odd indices, starting from index 5, are greater than 2, and all terms wi...
Solution. We proceed by induction. The base case is already stated. Suppose that for a natural number $k \geq 3$ we have $a_{2 k-1}>2, a_{2 k}<2$. Then, $a_{2 k+1}=1+\frac{a_{2 k-1}}{a_{2 k}}>1+1=2$, since $a_{2 k-1}>2>a_{2 k}$, $a_{2 k+2}=1+\frac{a_{2 k}}{a_{2 k+1}}<1+1=2$ since $a_{2 k}<2<a_{2 k+1}$. Thus, the ind...

10.5. 10.5 A - a four-digit number composed of non-zero digits, B the number written with the same digits in reverse order. It is known that the sum A+B is divisible by 109. What can the sum of the digits of A be?
Solution. Let $\mathrm{A}=\overline{a b c d}(a, b, c, d$ - digits), i.e., $\mathrm{A}=1000 a+100 b+10 c+d$. Then $\mathrm{B}=1000 d+100 c+10 b+a$ and $\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}=1001 a+110 b+110 c+1001 d$. In the last sum, we isolate the largest possible part that is definitely divisible by 109: $\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}=(98...

1. Variant 1. At the entrance to the amusement park, they sell children's and adult tickets. One children's ticket costs 600 rubles. Alexander bought 2 children's and 3 adult tickets, while Anna bought 3 children's and 2 adult tickets. It is known that Alexander paid 200 rubles more than Anna. How much did Alexander p...
Answer: 3600 ## Solution. Let $A$ be the cost of a children's ticket, and $B$ be the cost of an adult ticket. We calculate the difference $3B + 2A - 2B - 3A = B - A = 200$ rubles. This means the difference between the cost of an adult ticket and a children's ticket is 200 rubles. Then Alexander paid for the tickets $...

2. Variant 1. Given the set $A=\{1,2,3, \ldots, 1002\}$. Petya and Vasya are playing a game. Petya names a number $n$, and Vasya selects a subset from $A$ consisting of $n$ elements. Vasya wins if there are no two coprime numbers in the chosen subset; otherwise, Petya wins. What is the smallest $n$ that Petya should n...
# Solution. 1) Estimation. Note that the set $A$ contains 501 even numbers. If Petya names $n \leq 502$, then Vasya can choose $n$ even numbers from this set and win. 2) Now we will show that for $n=502$, Vasya will lose. For this, it is sufficient to show that in the chosen subset, there will necessarily be two conse...

For each trinomial, the coefficient of $x$ is a natural number, and the larger root is a prime number. Find the sum of all roots of these trinomials.
Answer: -9. ## Solution. The parabola intersects the $O y$ axis at a point whose ordinate is equal to the free term. Therefore, our trinomials have the form $x^{2}+a x-15, x^{2}+b x-6, x^{2}+c x-27$. Let's denote their larger roots by $p, q, r$ respectively. By Vieta's theorem, the second root of the first trinomial ...
