8.2. Petya came home from school today at $16:45$, looked at the clock and wondered: after what time will the hands of the clock be in the same position for the seventh time since he came home from school? | Answer: 435 minutes.
Solution. The speed of the minute hand is 12 divisions/hour (one division here refers to the distance between adjacent numbers on the clock face), and the hour hand is 1 division/hour.

8.3. Find all non-negative integer solutions of the equation
$$
2 x^{2}+2 x y-x+y=2020
$$ | Answer: $x=0, y=2020 ; x=1, y=673$.
Solution. Rewrite the equation as
$$
y(2 x+1)=2020-2 x^{2}+x
$$
For integer values of $x$, the expression $(2 x+1) \neq 0$, so by dividing it by $2 x+1$ and isolating the integer part, we get:

y=\frac{2019}{2 x+1}-x+1

Solution. Varya wins regardless of the moves the players make.

$a x^{2}+b x+c-\left((c-b) x^{2}+(c-a) x+(a+b)\right)=(a+b-c)\left(x^{2}+x-1\right)$. Therefore, either $a+b-c=0$, or their common root coincides with one of the roots of the quadratic $x^{2}+x-1$.

Points $B_{1}$ and $C_{1}$ lie on the circle constructed with $B C$ as its diameter (see figure). To solve the problem, it is sufficient to prove that $F$ also lies on this circle.

Solution. For Santa Claus to be able to give half of the gifts to Pete, the total number of gifts in his bag must be divisible by 2. Also, since he gave a fifth to Vasya and a seventh to Borya, the total number of gifts must be divisible by 5 and 7.

Note that 1008! $\cdot$ 1009! = $(1008!)^{2} \cdot 1009$. Similarly, we get that $2017!\cdot 2018!=(2017!)^{2} \cdot 2018$. Thus, 1008! $\cdot$ 1009! $\cdot$ 2017! $\cdot$ 2018! = $(1008!)^{2} \cdot (2017!)^{2} \cdot 1009 \cdot 2018 = (1008! \cdot 2017! \cdot 1009)^{2} \cdot 2$.

Let $C H$ be the altitude of triangle $A B C$, and point $M$ is symmetric to point $B$ with respect to point $H$. Prove that segments $B K$ and $C M$ are perpendicular. | Solution. Let $P$ be the intersection point of segments $B K$ and $C M$. We need to prove that angle $B P M$ is a right angle, that is, that the sum of angles $\angle P M B = \angle C M B$ and $\angle P B M = \angle K B M$ is $90^{\circ}$.

If the differences $\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{b}$ and $\mathrm{b}-\mathrm{c}$ coincided, then $\mathrm{b}=\frac{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{c}}{2}$, and everything is proven.

$$ | Answer: No. Suppose one of the numbers, for example, $y_{1}$, is negative. Then $\left|y_{2}\right|>3$. From the second equation, it follows that $y_{2} \leqslant 3$. This is only possible if $y$ is also negative, which means all numbers are negative.

Solution. By Vieta's theorem $q=x_{1} x_{2}$. Then $2 x_{2}=x_{1}+x_{1} x_{2}$, from which $x_{1}=\frac{2 x_{2}}{1+x_{2}}$. Since the roots are integers, $2 x_{2}$ is divisible by $1+x_{2}$.

Solution. If $n$ has six divisors, then either $n=p^{5}$ or $n=p \cdot q^{2}$ (where $p$ and $q$ are prime numbers). In the first case, $p=7$ (since the third divisor is seven times the second), but then the second condition is not satisfied.

9.2. An acute triangle $ABC$ is inscribed in a circle $\Omega$. The tangents to $\Omega$ at points $B$ and $C$ intersect at point $P$. Points $D$ and $E$ are the feet of the perpendiculars dropped from point $P$ to the lines $AB$ and $AC$. Prove that the orthocenter of triangle $ADE$ is the midpoint of segment $BC$.
(... | Solution. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$. Triangle $BPC$ is isosceles ($BP = PC$ as segments of tangents); hence, its median $PM$ is also an altitude. Since $\angle PMC = \angle PEC = 90^\circ$, quadrilateral $MCPE$ is cyclic; thus, $\angle MEP = \angle MCP$. Furthermore, $CP$ is a tangent to $\Omega$, so $\angle MCP ... | proof | Geometry | proof | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false | 15,152 |
9.3. On the board, 100 pairwise distinct natural numbers $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{100}$ were written. Then, under each number $a_{i}$, a number $b_{i}$ was written, obtained by adding to $a_{i}$ the greatest common divisor of the remaining 99 original numbers. What is the smallest number of pairwise distinct numbers t... | # Answer. 99.
First solution. If we set $a_{100}=1$ and $a_{i}=2 i$ for $i=1,2, \ldots, 99$, then $b_{1}=b_{100}=3$, so there will be no more than 99 different numbers among the numbers $b_{i}$. It remains to prove that there will always be 99 different numbers among the numbers $b_{i}$.

9.4. On a plane, $n$ lines are drawn, none of which are parallel. No three of them intersect at the same point. Prove that there exists an $n$-segment non-self-intersecting broken line $A_{0} A_{1} A_{2} \ldots A_{n}$, such that each of the $n$ lines contains exactly one segment of this broken line. | Solution. We will prove a stronger fact. Let $A_{0}$ be an arbitrary point on one of the given lines, through which no other lines pass. We will prove that there exists the required broken line starting from $A_{0}$.

Two different natural numbers are subjected to four operations:
a) their sum is found;

c) their product is found;
d) the larger number is divided by the smaller.
The sum of the results of all four operations is equal to $3^{5}$. What are these number... | Answer: 54 and $2 ; 24$ and 8.
Solution: Let $x$ and $y$ be the required natural numbers, $x>y$ :

On a circular track 60 cm long, ants are moving in both directions at a speed of 1 cm/s.

Solution: Divide all the seats in the presidium into eight groups as shown in the figure.
