Find all functions \(f (x)\) such that \(f (2x + 1) = 4x^2 + 14x + 7\).
Two different numbers \(x\) and \(y\) (not necessarily integers) are such that \(x^2-2000x=y^2-2000y\). Find the sum of \(x\) and \(y\).
To each pair of numbers \(x\) and \(y\) some number \(x * y\) is placed in correspondence. Find \(1993 * 1935\) if it is known that for any three numbers \(x, y, z\), the following identities hold: \(x * x = 0\) and \(x * (y * z) = (x * y) + z\).
Prove that for any natural number \(a_1> 1\) there exists an increasing sequence of natural numbers \(a_1, a_2, a_3, \dots\), for which \(a_1^2+ a_2^2 +\dots+ a_k^2\) is divisible by \(a_1+ a_2+\dots+ a_k\) for all \(k \geq 1\).
A numeric set \(M\) containing 2003 distinct numbers is such that for every two distinct elements \(a, b\) in \(M\), the number \(a^2+ b\sqrt 2\) is rational. Prove that for any \(a\) in \(M\) the number \(q\sqrt 2\) is rational.
Solve the equation \((x + 1)^3 = x^3\).
Find \(x^3 +y^3\) if \(x+y=5\) and \(x+y+x^2 y +xy^2 =24\).
Is it true that, if \(b>a+c>0\), then the quadratic equation \(ax^2 +bx+c=0\) has two roots?
Compute the following: \[\frac{(2001\times 2021 +100)(1991\times 2031 +400)}{2011^4}.\]
Solve the inequality: \(\lfloor x\rfloor \times \{x\} < x - 1\).
