The probability of the birth of twins in Cambria is \(p\), and no triplets are born in Cambria.
a) Evaluate the probability that a random Cambrian that one meets on the street is one of a pair of twins?
b) There are three children in a random Cambrian family. What is the probability that among them there is a pair of twins?
c) In Cambrian schools, twins must be enrolled in the same class. In total, there are \(N\) first-graders in Cambria.
What is the expectation of the number of pairs of twins among them?
What is the minimum number of \(1\times 1\) squares that need to be drawn in order to get an image of a \(25\times 25\) square divided into 625 smaller 1x1 squares?
a) There are three identical large vessels. In one there are 3 litres of syrup, in the other – 20 litres of water, and the third is empty. You can pour all the liquid from one vessel into another or into a sink. You can choose two vessels and pour into one of them liquid from the third, until the liquid levels in the selected vessels are equal. How can you get 10 litres of diluted 30% syrup?
b) The same, but there is \(N\) l of water. At what integer values of \(N\) can you get 10 liters of diluted 30% syrup?
It is known that \(AA + A = XYZ\). What is the last digit of the product: \(B \times C \times D \times D \times C \times E \times F \times G\) (where different letters denote different digits, identical letters denote identical digits)?
Monica is in a broken space buggy at a distance of 18 km from the Lunar base, in which Rachel sits. There is a stable radio communication system between them. The air reserve in the space buggy is enough for 3 hours, in addition, Monica has an air cylinder for the spacesuit, with an air reserve of 1 hour. Rachel has a lot of cylinders with an air supply of 2 hours each. Rachel can not carry more than two cylinders at the same time (one of them she uses herself). The speed of movement on the Moon in the suit is 6 km/h. Could Rachel save Monica and not die herself?
There are 40 identical cords. If you set any cord on fire on one side, it burns, and if you set it alight on the other side, it will not burn. Ahmed arranges the cords in the form of a square (see the figure below, each cord makes up a side of a cell). Then, Helen arranges 12 fuses. Will Ahmed be able to lay out the cords in such a way that Helen will not be able to burn all of them?
Solve the equation \(2 \sin \pi x / 2 - 2 \cos \pi x = x^5 + 10x - 54\).
301 schoolchildren came to the school’s New Year’s party in the city of Moscow. Some of them always tell the truth, and the rest always lie. Each of some 200 students said: “If I leave the hall, then among the remaining students, the majority will be liars.” Each of the other schoolchildren said: “If I leave the room, then among the remaining students, there will be twice as many liars as those who speak the truth.” How many liars were at the party?
A box contains 111 red, blue, green, and white marbles. It is known that if we remove 100 marbles from the box, without looking, we will always have removed at least one marble of each colour. What is the minimum number of marbles we need to remove to guarantee that we have removed marbles of 3 different colours?
A box contains 100 red, blue, and white marbles. It is known that if we remove 26 marbles from the box, without looking, we will always have removed at least 10 marbles of one colour. What is the minimum number of marbles we need to remove to guarantee that we have removed 30 marbles of the same colour?
