The National High School Mathematics Competition is set up as follows: the competition is divided into the first round and the second round. The first round includes 8 fill-in-the-blank questions (each worth 8 points) and 3 problem-solving questions (worth 16, 20, and 20 points respectively), with a total score of 120 points. The second round consists of 4 problem-solving questions covering plane geometry, algebra, number theory, and combinatorics. The first two questions are worth 40 points each, and the last two questions are worth 50 points each, with a total score of 180 points. It is known that a certain math competition participant has a probability of $\frac{4}{5}$ of correctly answering each fill-in-the-blank question in the first round, and a probability of $\frac{3}{5}$ of correctly answering each problem-solving question in the first round. In the second round, the participant has a probability of $\frac{3}{5}$ of correctly answering each of the first two questions, and a probability of $\frac{2}{5}$ of correctly answering each of the last two questions. Assuming full marks for correct answers and 0 points for incorrect answers: 1. Let $X$ denote the participant's score in the second round. Find $P(X \geq 100)$. 2. Based on the historical competition results in the participant's province, if a participant scores 100 points or above in the first round, the probability of winning the provincial first prize is $\frac{9}{10}$, while if the score is below 100 points, the probability is $\frac{2}{5}$. Can the probability of the participant winning the provincial first prize reach $\frac{1}{2}$, and explain the reason.

The FISS World Cup is a very popular football event among high school students worldwide. China successfully obtained the hosting rights for the International Middle School Sports Federation (FISS) World Cup in 2024, 2026, and 2028. After actively bidding by Dalian City and official recommendation by the Ministry of Education, Dalian ultimately became the host city for the 2024 FISS World Cup. During the preparation period, the organizing committee commissioned Factory A to produce a certain type of souvenir. The production of this souvenir requires an annual fixed cost of 30,000 yuan. For each x thousand pieces produced, an additional variable cost of P(x) yuan is required. When the annual production is less than 90,000 pieces, P(x) = 1/2x^2 + 2x (in thousand yuan). When the annual production is not less than 90,000 pieces, P(x) = 11x + 100/x - 53 (in thousand yuan). The selling price of each souvenir is 10 yuan. Through market analysis, it is determined that all souvenirs can be sold out in the same year. $(1)$ Write the analytical expression of the function of annual profit $L(x)$ (in thousand yuan) with respect to the annual production $x$ (in thousand pieces). (Note: Annual profit = Annual sales revenue - Fixed cost - Variable cost) $(2)$ For how many thousand pieces of annual production does the factory maximize its profit in the production of this souvenir? What is the maximum profit?

A magician writes the numbers 1 to 16 on 16 positions of a spinning wheel. Four audience members, A, B, C, and D, participate in the magic show. The magician closes his eyes, and then A selects a number from the wheel. B, C, and D, in that order, each choose the next number in a clockwise direction. Only A and D end up with even numbers on their hands. The magician then declares that he knows the numbers they picked. What is the product of the numbers chosen by A and D?

For any real number $x$, the symbol $[x]$ represents the integer part of $x$, i.e., $[x]$ is the largest integer not exceeding $x$. For example, $[2]=2$, $[2.1]=2$, $[-2.2]=-3$. This function $[x]$ is called the "floor function", which has wide applications in mathematics and practical production. Given that the function $f(x) (x \in \mathbb{R})$ satisfies $f(x)=f(2-x)$, and when $x \geqslant 1$, $f(x)=\log _{2}x$, find the value of $[f(-16)]+[f(-15)]+\ldots+[f(15)]+[f(16)]$.

A company needs 500 tons of raw materials to produce a batch of Product A, and each ton of raw material can generate a profit of 1.2 million yuan. Through equipment upgrades, the raw materials required to produce this batch of Product A were reduced by $x (x > 0)$ tons, and the profit generated per ton of raw material increased by $0.5x\%$. If the $x$ tons of raw materials saved are all used to produce the company's newly developed Product B, the profit generated per ton of raw material is $12(a-\frac{13}{1000}x)$ million yuan, where $a > 0$. $(1)$ If the profit from producing this batch of Product A after the equipment upgrade is not less than the profit from producing this batch of Product A before the upgrade, find the range of values for $x$; $(2)$ If the profit from producing this batch of Product B is always not higher than the profit from producing this batch of Product A after the equipment upgrade, find the maximum value of $a$.
