Solve the equation \((x + 1)^3 = x^3\).
On a function \(f (x)\) defined on the whole line of real numbers, it is known that for any \(a > 1\) the function \(f (x)\) + \(f (ax)\) is continuous on the whole line. Prove that \(f (x)\) is also continuous on the whole line.
Does there exist a function \(f (x)\) defined for all \(x \in \mathbb{R}\) and for all \(x, y \in \mathbb{R}\) satisfying the inequality \(| f (x + y) + \sin x + \sin y | < 2\)?
We call a number \(x\) rational if it can be represented as \(x=\frac{p}{q}\) for coprime integers \(p\) and \(q\). Otherwise we call the number irrational.
Non-zero numbers \(a\) and \(b\) satisfy the equality \(a^2b^2 (a^2b^2 + 4) = 2(a^6 + b^6)\). Prove that at least one of them is irrational.
Prove that in any set of 117 unique three-digit numbers it is possible to pick 4 non-overlapping subsets, so that the sum of the numbers in each subset is the same.
The real numbers \(x\) and \(y\) are such that for any distinct prime odd \(p\) and \(q\) the number \(x^p + y^q\) is rational. Prove that \(x\) and \(y\) are rational numbers.
The functions \(f (x) - x\) and \(f (x^2) - x^6\) are defined for all positive \(x\) and increase. Prove that the function
also increases for all positive \(x\).
The sum of the positive numbers \(a, b, c\) is \(\pi / 2\). Prove that \(\cos a + \cos b + \cos c > \sin a + \sin b + \sin c\).
The circles \(\sigma_1\) and \(\sigma_2\) intersect at points \(A\) and \(B\). At the point \(A\) to \(\sigma_1\) and \(\sigma_2\), respectively, the tangents \(l_1\) and \(l_2\) are drawn. The points \(T_1\) and \(T_2\) are chosen respectively on the circles \(\sigma_1\) and \(\sigma_2\) so that the angular measures of the arcs \(T_1A\) and \(AT_2\) are equal (the arc value of the circle is considered in the clockwise direction). The tangent \(t_1\) at the point \(T_1\) to the circle \(\sigma_1\) intersects \(l_2\) at the point \(M_1\). Similarly, the tangent \(t_2\) at the point \(T_2\) to the circle \(\sigma_2\) intersects \(l_1\) at the point \(M_2\). Prove that the midpoints of the segments \(M_1M_2\) are on the same line, independent of the positions of the points \(T_1, T_2\).
Prove that for each \(x\) such that \(\sin x \neq 0\), there is a positive integer \(n\) such that \(|\sin nx| \geq \sqrt{3}/2\).
