Problem 5.3. In five of the nine circles in the picture, the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are written. Replace the digits $6, 7, 8, 9$ in the remaining circles $A, B, C, D$ so that the sums of the four numbers along each of the three sides of the triangle are the same. ![](https://cdn.mathpix.com/cropped/2024_05_06_d3a039ae0...
Answer: $A=6, B=8, C=7, D=9$. Solution. From the condition, it follows that $A+C+3+4=5+D+2+4$, from which $D+4=A+C$. Note that $13 \geqslant D+4=A+C \geqslant 6+7$. Therefore, this is only possible when $D=9$, and $A$ and $C$ are 6 and 7 in some order. Hence, $B=8$. The sum of the numbers along each side is $5+9+3+4=...

Answer: 52. Solution. All sides of a square are equal, and its perimeter is 24, so each side is $24: 4=6$. The perimeter of the rectangle is 16, and its two largest sides are each 6, so the two smallest sides are each $(16-6 \cdot 2): 2=2$. Then the entire large rectangle has dimensions $8 \times 18$, and its perimete...

Answer: 60. Solution. From the first weighing, it follows that 1 triangular weight balances 2 round weights. From the second weighing, it follows that 3 round weights balance 1 rectangular weight, which weighs 90 grams.

Problem 7.5. A rectangular strip of length 16 was cut into two strips of lengths 9 and 7. These two strips were placed on the table as shown in the figure. It is known that the area of the part of the table covered only by the left strip is 27, and the area of the part of the table covered only by the right strip is 1...
Answer: 13.5. Solution. Since the width of the two resulting strips is the same, their areas are in the ratio of their lengths, i.e., $9: 7$. Let $S$ be the area covered by both strips. Then $\frac{27+S}{18+S}=\frac{9}{7}$, from which we get $7 \cdot(27+S)=9 \cdot(18+S)$. Solving this linear equation, we get $S=13.5$.

9.6. Is it true that for any three distinct natural numbers $a$, $b$, and $c$, there exists a quadratic trinomial with integer coefficients and a positive leading coefficient that takes the values $a^{3}$, $b^{3}$, and $c^{3}$ at some integer points? (A. Khryabrov)
Answer. Yes, correct. Solution. We will show that the quadratic polynomial $f(x)=(a+b+c) x^{2}-(a b+b c+c a) x+a b c=x^{3}-(x-a)(x-b)(x-c)$ fits. It is clear that its coefficients are integers and the leading coefficient $a+b+c$ is positive. Finally, it is easy to see that $f(a)=a^{3}-0=a^{3}$; similarly, $f(b)=b^{3}...

5. The numbers $1,2,3, \ldots, 99$ are written on the board. Petya and Vasya are playing a game, with Petya starting. Each move involves erasing three numbers that sum to 150. The player who cannot make a move loses. Which player can win, regardless of how the opponent plays?
# 5. Answer: Petya. Solution: His first move is to erase the number 50 and any 2 numbers that sum to 100, for example, 1 and 99. He then divides all the remaining numbers into pairs with a sum of 100: (2,98), (3,97), ..., (49,51). Vasya cannot erase two numbers from the same pair in one move, as their sum is 100, and...

9.1. Solve the equation: $$ \left(x^{2}-20\right)^{2}+\left(x^{2}-19\right)^{2}=2019 $$
Solution. Let $x^{2}-20=y$; then $y^{2}+y-1009=0(D=4037)$ and $y=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{4037}}{2}$. For the smaller root, the reverse substitution leads to the condition $x^{2}<0$ (no solutions), the larger root gives Answer: $x= \pm \sqrt{\frac{39+\sqrt{4037}}{2}}$.

Solution. In all operations, the number of newspaper scraps increases by 6 or by 3, so the remainder of the division by 3 of the total number of scraps at any moment is preserved. At the beginning of the process (when the newspaper was whole), this remainder was 1. The number 2019 gives a zero remainder when divided by...

1. A natural number is called a palindrome if it remains unchanged when its digits are written in reverse order (for example, 626 is a palindrome, while 2015 is not). Represent the number 2015 as the sum of two palindromes.
Answer: $2015=1551+464$ Comment. To find the solution, one could reason as follows: Since 2002 does not work, the larger addend must be of the form $\overline{1 \text { AА1 }}$. Then the second addend must end in 4, as it equals 2015 - $\overline{1 \text { AА1 }}$, i.e., it has the form $\overline{4 \mathrm{~B} 4}$. ...

2. A fraction in its simplest form was written on the board. Petya decreased its numerator by 1 and its denominator by 2. Vasya, on the other hand, increased the numerator by 1 and left the denominator unchanged. It turned out that the boys ended up with the same value. What exactly could their result be?
Answer. 1. Solution. Let the fraction $\frac{a}{b}$ have been written. Then Petya obtained $\frac{a-1}{b-2}$, and Vasya obtained $\frac{a+1}{b}$. Since they got the same result, $\frac{a-1}{b-2}=\frac{a+1}{b}$, from which $b-a=1$. Therefore, the original fraction had the form $\frac{a}{a+1}$. And Petya obtained the fr...

Answer: 5. Solution. Let $A M$ be the median drawn from vertex $A$. Then, in triangle $A B M$, the bisector of angle $B$ is perpendicular to side $A M$, i.e., the bisector is also an altitude. Therefore, this triangle is isosceles, $A B = B M = 1$. Hence, $B C = 2 B M = 2$. Similarly, from the second condition, we get...
