6. (20 points) Each of the two baskets contains white and black balls, and the total number of balls in both baskets is 25. One ball is randomly drawn from each basket. It is known that the probability that both drawn balls will be white is 0.54. Find the probability that both drawn balls will be black.
Answer: 0.04. Solution. Let in the $i$-th basket there be $n_{i}$ balls, among which $k_{i}$ are white, $i=1,2$. Then $\frac{k_{1}}{n_{1}} \cdot \frac{k_{2}}{n_{2}}=0.54=\frac{27}{50}$. Therefore, for some natural number $m$, the equalities $k_{1} \cdot k_{2}=27 m, n_{1} \cdot n_{2}=50 m$ hold. One of the numbers $n_{...

Solution: Let the side of the square be $a=5$, and the distances from point $X$ to sides $AB$, $BC$, $CD$, and $DA$ be $h_{1}$, $h_{2}$, $h_{3}$, and $h_{4}$, respectively. Since the area of a triangle is $S=\frac{1}{2} a h$, we conclude that $h_{1}: h_{2}: h_{3}=1: 5: 9$ or $h_{1}=x$, $h_{2}=5 x, h_{3}=9 x$. However,...

Answer: 4 possible numbers: $224 ; 449 ; 674 ; 899$. Solution. Let $x$ be the first digit of the original number, $y$ be the two-digit number after erasing $x$. Then we have the equation $100 x+y=9 y+8 \Leftrightarrow 2 y+2=25 x$. Therefore, $x$ is an even number: $x=2 z$ for some $z(z \leq 4)$. Hence, $y+1=25 z$, and ...

Let $M$ be the midpoint of $AB$. Consider $\triangle BMN$. We have $MB=MN$ (by the property of the median of the right triangle $ANB$), so $\angle NBM = \angle BNM$.

Solution. We will prove that there exists an infinite set of numbers $x$ for which $x-1=a^{2}$ and $4 x+1=b^{2}$ for some rational numbers $a, b$. From these equations, we have $b^{2}-4 a^{2}=5 \Leftrightarrow (b-2 a)(b+2 a)=5$. Let $b-2 a=t$ and $b+2 a=\frac{5}{t}$, where $t$ is a rational number. Then $a=\frac{5-t^{2...

Then $a^{4}=(c a-d)^{2}=c^{2} a^{2}-2 a c d+d^{2}=$ $c^{2}(c a-d)-2 a c d+d^{2}=a\left(c^{3}-2 c d\right)+d^{2}-c^{2} d$. Therefore, $a^{4}-\left(c^{3}-2 c d\right) a=d^{2}-c^{2}...

On the board, 100 natural numbers (not necessarily distinct) are written. a) Prove that if the sum of any three numbers on the board is less than the sum of any four of the remaining, then the sum of any two numbers on the board is less than the sum of any three of the remaining. b) Is it true that if the sum of a...
Answer: b) is incorrect. Solution. a) Reasoning by contradiction: let the sum of some two numbers on the board be not less than the sum of some three of the remaining numbers; then take any two numbers $x, y$ from the remaining 95 numbers, and let for definiteness $x \leq y$. Adding $x$ to the initial triplet of number...

7.4. There are 20 sticks of lengths $1, 2, \ldots, 20$. Can they be used to form a) a square; b) an equilateral triangle? (All sticks must be used without breaking them.)
Answer: a) impossible; b) possible. Solution. a) The sum of the lengths of all 20 sticks is 210. This number is not divisible by 4, and therefore it is impossible to form a square. b) It is possible to distribute 210 into three equal parts of 70 each in different ways, for example, as follows: $(20+19+18+13)+(17+16+15+...

Answer: 5 km before point $B$. Solution. Let $a=15$ (km), $u=5$ (km/h), $v=20$ (km/h). Let $x$ (km) be the distance from point $B$ to the place where the bicycle is left. Then Andrei's travel time is $t_{A}=\frac{2 a-x}{v}+\frac{x}{u}$, and Seva's travel time is $t_{C}=\frac{a-x}{u}+\frac{x}{v}$. We need to find such a...

Answer: 2018. Solution. The numerator equals $a^{4}+2 a^{2} b^{2}+b^{4}-4 a^{2} b^{2}-c^{2}=\left(a^{2}-b^{2}\right)^{2}-c^{2}=$ $\left(a^{2}-b^{2}+c\right)\left(a^{2}-b^{2}-c\right)$, and after dividing by the denominator we get $a^{2}-b^{2}-c=$ $(a-b)(a+b)-c=2017+2016-2015=2018$.

Solution. Triangle ANK is isosceles, so the angles at the base are equal. Let $\alpha=\angle K A N=\angle N K A$. Obviously, $\alpha > \angle B$ (since for triangle $A B K$, angle $\angle N K A$ is external). Therefore, $\angle A > \angle B$, from which the result follows (the side opposite the larger angle is longer).

Answer: 2012. Solution: Let $a=2011, \quad b=2012$. Then $a^{2}+a b+b^{2}=\frac{b^{3}-a^{3}}{b-a}=b^{3}-a^{3}$ (since $b-a=1$). Therefore, $x^{3}=b^{3}-a^{3}+a^{3}=b^{3}$. Hence, $x=b=2012$.

Answer: more than planned. Solution. Let $a$ be the length of the distance. Then the planned time is $\frac{a}{V}$, and the actual time is $\frac{a}{2 \cdot 1.25 V}+\frac{a}{2 \cdot 0.8 V}=\frac{a}{V} \cdot \frac{41}{40}>\frac{a}{V}$.
