Prove that for any positive integer \(n\) the inequality

is true.

Find the largest natural number \(n\) which satisfies \(n^{200} <5^{300}\).

Of the four inequalities \(2x > 70\), \(x < 100\), \(4x > 25\) and \(x > 5\), two are true and two are false. Find the value of \(x\) if it is known that it is an integer.

On a plane, there are 1983 points and a circle of unit radius. Prove that there is a point on the circle, from which the sum of the distances to these points is no less than 1983.

Prove that \(\sqrt{\frac{a^2 + b^2}{2}} \geq \frac{a+b}{2}\).

We are given rational positive numbers \(p, q\) where \(1/p + 1/q = 1\). Prove that for positive \(a\) and \(b\), the following inequality holds: \(ab \leq \frac{a^p}{p} + \frac{b^q}{q}\).

Let \(p\) and \(q\) be positive numbers where \(1 / p + 1 / q = 1\). Prove that \[a_1b_1 + a_2b_2 + \dots + a_nb_n \leq (a_1^p + \dots a_n^p)^{1/p}(b_1^q +\dots + b_n^q)^{1/q}\] The values of the variables are considered positive.

Find the largest value of the expression \(a + b + c + d - ab - bc - cd - da\), if each of the numbers \(a\), \(b\), \(c\) and \(d\) belongs to the interval \([0, 1]\).

Is it possible to:

a) load two coins so that the probability of “heads” and “tails” were different, and the probability of getting any of the combinations “tails, tails,” “heads, tails”, “heads, heads” be the same?

b) load two dice so that the probability of getting any amount from 2 to 12 would be the same?

On a calculator keypad, there are the numbers from 0 to 9 and signs of two actions (see the figure). First, the display shows the number 0. You can press any keys. The calculator performs the actions in the sequence of clicks. If the action sign is pressed several times, the calculator will only remember the last click.

a) The button with the multiplier sign breaks and does not work. The Scattered Scientist pressed several buttons in a random sequence. Which result of the resulting sequence of actions is more likely: an even number or an odd number?

b) Solve the previous problem if the multiplication symbol button is repaired.
