1 1. How many circles in the plane contain at least three of the points (0, 0), (0, 1), (0, 2), (1, 0), (1, 1), (1, 2), (2, 0), (2, 1), (2, 2)? Solution: There are ( ) 9 3 = 8 three element subsets, all of which give rise to a circle except those which are co- linear, of which there are 8. But some circles get counted four times, namely those which contain four of the nine points. So the problem is to count the four element subsets that belong to a circle. There are six such sets that are vertices of a square, and four more that are vertices of a non-square rectangle. Then there are four more that are isomorphic with {(0, 0), (1, 0), (2, 1), (2, 2)}. For each of these = 1 sets, we must subtract three circles that have been counted times. Therefore there are 8 8 (3 1) = 3 such circles. Alternatively, note that there are 8 circles with centers in the region x > 0, y > 0, thinking now that the nine points have been translated so that the middle one is the origin. Thus there are 8 + 2(circles with center at the origin) = Nine points are distributed around a circle in such a way that when all ( ) 9 2 pairs of points are connected by segments, no three of the segments are concurrent. How many points of intersection are there inside the circle? Solution: Each point of intersection is determined by a four-element subset of the nine-element set, so there are ( ) 9 = 126 such points. 3. Two points are randomly and simultaneously selected from the 5 grid of 20 lattice points {(m, n) 1 m 5 and 1 n }. What is the probability that the distance between them is rational? ) = 30 and Solution: There are ( ( 5 2) = 0 horizontal pairs of points and 5 2 there are two pairs of points which are five units apart. There are ( ) 20 2 = 190 pairs of points, so the probability of two points being a rational distance apart is 72/190 = 36/95. 1
2 . (This is problem 1 on the 1966 IMO) In a math contest, three problems, A, B, and C were posed. Among the participants there were 25 who solved at least one problem. Of all the participants who did not solve problem A, the number who solved problem B was twice the number who solved C. The number who solved only problem A was one more than the number who solved A and at least one other problem. Of all participants who solved just one problem, half did not solve problem A. How many solved just problem B? Solution: The answer is 6. Consider the Venn diagram below: A B. x 1 x 2 x 3.. x x 5 x 6 x 7 Letting x 1,..., x 7 denote the number of students in each of the regions depicted, it follows that x 1 +x 2 +x 3 +x +x 5 +x 6 +x 7 = 25 +x 3 x 6 2x 7 = 0 x 1 x 2 x x 5 = 1 x 1 x 3 x 7 = 0 Subtracting equation from the sum of the first three yields C x 1 + 3x 3 = 26. Only the pairs (x 1, x 3 ) = (2, 8), (5, 7), (8, 6), (11, 5), (1, 5), (17, 3), (20, 2), (23, 1), (26, 0). However, since 1 + x 2 + x + x 5 = x 3 + x 7 = x 1, it follows that x 1 < 11. On the other hand, x 1 > x 3. This means that only the pair (8, 6) can work. Indeed, x 1 = 8, x 3 = 6, x 7 = 2, x 6 = 2, and x 2 + x + x 5 = 7. 2
3 5. A falling number is an integer whose decimal representation has the property that each digit except the units digit is larger than the one to its right. For example is a falling number but 8962 is not. How many n-digit falling numbers are there, for n = 1, 2, 3,, 5, 6, and 7? Solution: Each collection of distinct digits can be arranged to form a falling number is exactly one way. hence the number of such numbers with 2, 3,... digits is ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) 10 2, 10 3, 10, 10 5,... for a total of = For how many integers n between 1 and 1000 does x 2 + x n factor into the product of two linear factors with integer coefficients? Solution: x 2 + x n = (x a)(x + (a + 1)) implies a(a + 1) = n, and there 31 such cases less than Twelve lattice points are arranged along the edges of a 3 3 square as shown. How many triangles have all three of their vertices among these points? Solution: Note that each three element subset except the co-linear ones determine a triangle: ( ) ( ) = How many numbers can be expressed as a sum of four distinct members of the set {17, 21, 25, 29, 33, 37, 1}? Solution: Each member of {17, 21, 25, 29, 33, 37, 1} is one more than a multiple of four. Therefore, any sum of four of them is a multiple of. The smallest such number is = 92 and the largest is = 10 and all the multiples of between them are obtainable. There are = = 13 such numbers. Alternatively, we transform the problem into a simpler one. Because 17 = + 1, 21 = 5 + 1,..., 1 = , it makes sense to set up a correspondence between R and the set of numbers generated by {, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} OR between R and those numbers generated by { 3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3}. The set R in this case is just { 6, 5,, 3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3,, 5, 6}, which has 13 members. 3
4 9. How many numbers can be obtained as the product of two or more of the numbers 3,,, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7? Solution: Factor the product n of members of G into primes to get something of the form n = 2 i 3 j 5 k 7 l. The exponent i is odd if and only if the 6 appears in the product. The number of 5 s and 7 s in S n is just k and l respectively and the number of s is i. The number of 6 s is i 2 i, and the number 2 2 of 3 s is j minus the number of 6 s. Thus the number of members of R is the number alternative ways to treat the various values. We can include the 3 or not, include the 6 or not, include 0, 1, or 2 of the s, 0,1, or 2 of the 5 s, and 0,1,2, or 3 of the 7 s. This number is = How many of the first 80 positive integers are expressible as a sum of three or fewer members of the set {3 0, 3 1, 3 2, 3 3, 3 } if we are allowed to use the same power more than once. For example, 5 can be represented, but 8 cannot. Solution: The number of powers of 3 used is just the sum of the ternary digits. It is useful therefore to consider the numbers from 1 to 26, 27 to 53, and 5 to 80. Numbers in the range 1 to 26 have ternary representation of the form (a 2 a 1 a 0 ) 3. How many of these satisfy a 2 + a 1 + a 0 3? There are 16 such numbers. Those in the range 27 to 53 all have the form (1a 2 a 1 a 0 ) 3. There are 10 for which a 2 + a 1 + a 0 2. The number in the range 5 to 80 have the form (2a 2 a 1 a 0 ) 3. Only of these satisfy a 2 +a 1 +a 0 1. Hence there are = 30 such numbers altogether. 11. (199 UNC Charlotte Comprehensive Exam) How many integers can be expressed as a sum of two or more different members of the set {0, 1, 2,, 8, 16, 31}? Solution: The 0 in the set means that we should count the individual elements among the sums. If the 31 was a 32, we d have unique (binary) representation. Hence the number of sums is just 2 6 minus 1(the empty sum) minus the duplicated values, of which there is just one. Hence there are 6 2 = 62 members of R. 12. Each of the numbers 1, 2, 3,, 5,..., 62 is achievable, and 62 is certainly the largest member of R.
5 13. John has 2 pennies, 3 nickels, 2 dimes, 3 quarters, and 8 dollars. For how many different amounts can John make an exact purchase? Solution: We ll count achievable amounts less than $1, and multiply by 9, then add in the 9 values 9.00, 9.01, 9.02, 9.05, 9.06, 9.07, 9.10, 9.11, They are {0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12,...}, exactly three of every five consecutive values. So, counting 0, there are 3 (100) = 60 such values. Hence there are = 5 539, since we don t count the value 0. Now adding in the nine uncounted values, we get = What is the size of the largest subset, S, of {1, 2, 3,..., 50} such that no pair of distinct elements of S has a sum divisible by 7? Solution: S cannot have both an a 1(mod7) and a b 6(mod7). therefore, put the members of S into one of four boxes b 0, b 1, b 2, b 3 according to number a goes into box i if a is congruent to i or 7 i. Now box b 0 has at most 1 b 1 has at most 8 (1,8,15,22,29,36,3,50) and the other two boxes have at most 7 for a total of = How many ordered pairs (m, n) of positive integers are solutions to m + 2 n = 1? Solution: Simplify to getmn 2m n = 0 or mn 2m n + 8 = 8 and factor to get n-2=1 and m-=8; n-2=2 and m-=; etc for four pairs. 16.

6 The sum of the numbers in the C positions is = Recall that a Yahtzee Roll is a roll of five indistinguishable dice. a. How many different Yahtzee Rolls are possible? b.

How many four digit numbers abcd satisfy a d = 2? 20. A box contains 2 pennies, nickels, and 6 dimes. Six coins are drawn without replacement, with each of the 12 coins having the same probability of being chosen. What is the probability that the value of the coins is at least 50 cents? 21. Let S = {1, 2, 3,, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}. a. How many five element subsets does the set have? b. How many subsets of S have an odd number of members? c. How many subsets of S have 1 as a member? d. How many subsets have 1 as a member and do not have 2 as a member? 22. Imagine that the 7 grid below represents the streets of a part of the city where you live. You must walk 11 blocks to get from the lower left corner at A to the upper right corner at B. (a) How many different 11 block walks are there? (b) How many 11 block walks avoid the terrible corner marked with the bullet? (c) How many 11 block walks go through the terrible corner? 6
7 (d) How many different 12 block walks are there from A to B? (e) How many different 13 block walks are there from A to B? B A 23. How many positive integers less than 1000 have an odd number of positive integer divisors? 2. How many integers can be obtained as a sum of two or more of the numbers 1, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, 82? Solution: ( Alan Tucker s Applied Combinatorics, problem 0, page 179.) Each member of G = {1, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, 82} is larger than the sum of the smaller members of G except 82. Therefore the only duplicated sums involve 82. The minimal duplicated sums are = and = The other duplicates is 88 and 86. Thus there are 2 7 ( ) 7 1 = different sums, since we don t want to count the ( ) 7 1 = 7 singletons, the empty sum, and the four duplicated values. 25. Sixteen lattice points are arranged in a 3 3 square as shown. How many triangles have all three of their vertices among these points? Solution: ( ) ( ) = 516 7
