14. (12 points) Use 36 solid rectangular prisms of size $3 \times 2 \times 1$ to form a large cube of size $6 \times 6 \times 6$. Among all possible arrangements, the maximum number of small rectangular prisms that can be seen from a point outside the large cube is $\qquad$.
\documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{amssymb} \begin{document} 31 \end{document}
【Answer】Solution: As shown in the figure, To see the maximum number from the outside, it is necessary to make the rectangles seen from the outside as "deeply" inside the square as possible, the result is as follows: a total of $6 \times 3+3 \times 4+3 \times 1+1=31$ (pieces). Therefore, the answer is: 31.

18. Since $2002=2 \times 7 \times 11 \times 13$, we can choose certain vertices among the 2002 vertices to form regular 7-, 11-, 13-, $\cdots$ polygons (where the number of sides runs through divisors of 2002 greater than 2 and less than 1001). Since $2002=7 \times 286$, so there are at least 286 different positive int...

6. Find the greatest possible value of $\gcd(x+2015 y, y+2015 x)$, given that $x$ and $y$ are coprime numbers.
4060224
Answer: $2015^{2}-1=4060224$. Solution. Note that the common divisor will also divide $(x+2015 y)-2015(y+2015 x)=\left(1-2015^{2}\right) x$. Similarly, it divides $\left(1-2015^{2}\right) y$, and since $(x, y)=1$, it divides $\left(1-2015^{2}\right)$. On the other hand, if we take $x=1, y=2015^{2}-2016$, then we get $\...

Rong Ge 42. Analysis Note $x y \leq \frac{1}{4} x^{2}+y^{2}, 8 x \leq x^{2}+16, y \leq \frac{1}{4} y^{2}+1$, adding these three inequalities yields $$ x y+8 x+y \leq \frac{5}{4}\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)+17=42 $$ and when $x=4, y=2$, the equality can be achieved, so the maximum value of $x y+8 x+y$ is 42.

Let $z_{n}=y_{n}+x_{n} i$. Then the recursion implies that: $$\begin{aligned} & z_{1}=z_{2}=1+i \\ & z_{n}=z_{n-1} z_{n-2} \end{aligned}$$ This implies that $$z_{n}=\left(z_{1}\right)^{F_{n}}$$ where $F_{n}$ is the $n^{\text {th }}$ Fibonacci number $\left(F_{1}=F_{2}=1\right)$. So, $z_{2012}=(1+i)^{F_{2012}}$. Notice ...

22. Answer. 8 Solution. We first prove that if $x \geq 8$, then $z=2$. To this end, we observe that the left hand side of the equation $1!+2!+3!+\ldots+x!$ is divisible by 3 , and hence $3 \mid y^{2}$. Since 3 is a prime, $3 \mid y$. So, $3^{z} \mid y^{z}$ by elementary properties of divisibility. On the other hand, wh...

[1, \frac{6}{5})
5. Taking $x=2, y=z=1$, we have $a \geqslant \frac{6}{5}$. Therefore, when $a \geqslant \frac{6}{5}$, the original inequality has integer roots $(2,1,1)$, but $(x, y, z)$ cannot form a triangle, so $a<\frac{6}{5}$. When $a<1$, $x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2} \leqslant a(x y+y z+z x)<x y+y z+z x$, which is a contradiction! Hence, $...

Solution (1) From the given, we have $256-16|y| \geq 0$, thus $-16 \leq y \leq 16$. If $\left|x^{2}-16 y\right|=x^{2}-16 y$, then when $0 \leq y \leq 16$, $\left|x^{2}-16 y\right|=x^{2}-16 y=256-16 y, x^{2}=256$, at this time $x= \pm 16(0 \leq y \leq 16)$, the image is two line segments; When $-16 \leq y \leq 0$, $\lef...

$m_2=5, m_3=33$
Let $m_{s}=\left[\frac{1}{(\sqrt[3]{2}-1)^{s}}\right]+1$, for integers $n \geqslant m_{s}$, we have $n>\frac{1}{(\sqrt[3]{2}-1)^{s}}$, which means $\sqrt[3]{2 n}-$ $\sqrt[3]{n}=\sqrt[3]{n}(\sqrt[3]{2}-1)>1$.

Solution. Answer: $N=260$. If $N$ were odd, then both $k$ and $m$ would be odd, which means $k^{k}+m^{m}$ would be an even number. Therefore, the equation $N=k^{k}+m^{m}$ would be impossible in this case. Now let $N$ be even. Then $k=2$ and $m$ is also even. Since $4=N-m^{m}$ is divisible by $m$, we have $m=4$ (since ...

# 3. Option 1. The Ivanov family consists of three people: dad, mom, and daughter. Today, on the daughter's birthday, the mother calculated the sum of the ages of all family members and got 74 years. It is known that 10 years ago, the total age of the Ivanov family members was 47 years. How old is the mother now, if s...
33
Answer: 33. Solution: If the daughter had been born no less than 10 years ago, then 10 years ago the total age would have been $74-30=44$ years. But the total age is 3 years less, which means the daughter was born 7 years ago. The mother is now $26+7=33$ years old.

Points $X$ and $Y$ are inside a unit square. The score of a vertex of the square is the minimum distance from that vertex to $X$ or $Y$. What is the minimum possible sum of the scores of the vertices of the square?
\frac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{6}}{2}
Let the square be $A B C D$. First, suppose that all four vertices are closer to $X$ than $Y$. Then, by the triangle inequality, the sum of the scores is $A X+B X+C X+D X \geq A B+C D=2$. Similarly, suppose exactly two vertices are closer to $X$ than $Y$. Here, we have two distinct cases: the vertices closer to $X$ are...

6. Let $f$ be a function from $\{1,2, \ldots, 22\}$ to the positive integers such that $m n \mid f(m)+f(n)$ for all $m, n \in\{1,2, \ldots, 22\}$. If $d$ is the number of positive divisors of $f(20)$, compute the minimum possible value of $d$.
2016
Answer: 2016 Solution: Let $L=\operatorname{lcm}(1,2, \ldots, 22)$. We claim that the possible values of $f(20)$ are the multiples of $20 L$. If we can prove this, we will be done, since the minimum value of $d$ will be the number of divisors of $20 L=2^{6} \cdot 3^{2} \cdot 5^{2} \cdot 7 \cdot 11 \cdot 13 \cdot 17 \cd...

12.24 The function is defined for all $x$. We find $$ y^{\prime}=3 x^{2} e^{-x}-x^{3} e^{-x}=x^{2} e^{-x}(3-x) $$ The equation $y^{\prime}=0$ has only one root $x=3$. Since $y^{\prime}>0$ for $x<3$ and $y^{\prime}<0$ for $x>3$, the function reaches a maximum at the point $x=3$, which is equal to $3^{3} e^{-3}=\frac{2...

Find all prime numbers $p, q, r$ (not necessarily positive) such that $$ \frac{1}{p-q-r}=\frac{1}{q}+\frac{1}{r} $$
\{(5, 2, 2), (-5, -2, -2), (-5, 3, -2), (-5, -2, 3), (5, 2, -3), (5, -3, 2)\}
If the equality holds for $p, q$, and $r$ (not necessarily positive) prime numbers, then $p-q-r \neq 0 (q \neq 0, r \neq 0)$; multiplying both sides by $q r(p-q-r)$: $$ r q=(p-q-r) \cdot r+(p-q-r) q, \quad \text { i.e., } r q=(p-q-r)(r+q) $$ Since $r$ and $q$ are primes, the product $r q$ can have 8 divisors: $1, -1,...

13. Five square tiles are put together side by side. A quarter circle is drawn on each tile to make a continuous curve as shown. Each of the smallest squares has side-length 1 . What is the total length of the curve? A $6 \pi$ B $6.5 \pi$ С $7 \pi$ D $7.5 \pi$ E $8 \pi$
6 \pi
Solution A The side lengths of the 5 squares are $1,1,2,3$ and 5 . So the curve is made up of five quarter circles with these radii. The circumference of a circle with radius $r$ is $2 \pi r$. Therefore the length of a quarter circle of radius $r$ is $\frac{1}{4}(2 \pi r)$, that is, $\frac{1}{2} \pi r$. Therefore the ...
