On a plane there are 100 sheep-points and one wolf-point. In one move, the wolf moves by no more than 1, after which one of the sheep moves by a distance of no more than 1, after that the wolf again moves, etc. At any initial location of the points, will a wolf be able to catch one of the sheep?
The planet has \(n\) residents, some are liars and some are truth tellers. Each resident said: “Among the remaining residents of the island, more than half are liars.” How many liars are on the island?
You are given a table of size \(m \times n\) (\(m, n > 1\)). In it, the centers of all cells are marked. What is the largest number of marked centers that can be chosen so that no three of them are the vertices of a right triangle?
A \(99 \times 99\) chequered table is given, each cell of which is painted black or white. It is allowed (at the same time) to repaint all of the cells of a certain column or row in the colour of the majority of cells in that row or column. Is it always possible to have that all of the cells in the table are painted in the same colour?
There are several cities (more than one) in a country; some pairs of cities are connected by roads. It is known that you can get from every city to any other city by driving along several roads. In addition, the roads do not form cycles, that is, if you leave a certain city on some road and then move so as not to pass along one road twice, it is impossible to return to the initial city. Prove that in this country there are at least two cities, each of which is connected by a road with exactly one city.
You are given 10 different positive numbers. In which order should they be named \(a_1, a_2, \dots , a_{10}\) such that the sum \(a_1 +2a_2 +3a_3 +\dots +10a_{10}\) is at its maximum?
A pentagon is inscribed in a circle of radius 1. Prove that the sum of the lengths of its sides and diagonals is less than 17.
10 guests came to a party and each left a pair of shoes in the corridor (all guests have the same shoes). All pairs of shoes are of different sizes. The guests began to disperse one by one, putting on any pair of shoes that they could fit into (that is, each guest could wear a pair of shoes no smaller than his own). At some point, it was discovered that none of the remaining guests could find a pair of shoes so that they could leave. What was the maximum number of remaining guests?
How can one measure out 15 minutes, using an hourglass of 7 minutes and 11 minutes?
