13 0 04 Log Contest Round Individual Solutions Mu Al Th Solution Using the given information, the relationship is F.8C. Therefore, F.8 0.5F 0.9F 0.F F Since this is an arithmetic series with terms, a kd a a d a d a 55 d. x f e f x x e x f x ln x y x x dx x x x C k0. Plugging in C. Therefore, y x x x x x,0 yields 0 C X X X X Using Euler s theorem, 7 7 mod0. Therefore, mod0, so we only need to see what the tens digit of 0, , so the tens digit is. i 8i 4 7 is. In modulus i i 4 i i i z or i, so the imaginary solution is i. Working backwards, if Mikey came home with $ after spending one-fourth of his money in the third store, he went into the third store with $8. In the second store he spent one-third of his money plus $, so adding the $ yields $4, and if he spent onethird of his money, he went into the second store with $. Finally, he spent half of his money plus $ in the first store, so adding the $ yields $7, and if he spent half of his money, he went into the first store with $54. If all five digits are odd, then there are 5 choices for each digit, making a total of 5 5 numbers with all five digits odd. If all five digits are even, then there are 4 choices for the first digit (0 can t be the first digit) and 5 choices for the other four 4 digits, making a total of numbers with all five digits even. This makes a total of such numbers.

14 To find the intersection values, set the equations equal to each other: x x x x 0 5x 5x 5x x x 0 or x. Both curves are parabolas, so the one that opens downward will be the upper curve, and the area is x x x xdx 5x 5xdx x x Since log 5, log x, log 480 forms an arithmetic progression, 5, x, 480 forms a geometric progression. Therefore, x Because the triangle is right, BD The hypotenuse has length, so the enclosed area is 5 5. Examining the distribution casewise, if Kid A gets 0 chocolates, then Thom Yorke 4 distributes chocolates to 4 kids, which can be done in 8 ways. If Kid A gets chocolate, then Thom Yorke distributes 9 chocolates to 4 kids, 49 which can be done in 0 ways. If Kid A gets chocolates, then Thom Yorke distributes 8 chocolates to 4 kids, which can be done in ways. This yields a total of total distributions. From the given information, 4 k ad a d ad, 5k a, and 04 k ad a d ad. Adding the first and third equations yields 8 k a d 4 k a d. Plugging in the second equation yields 4 k 5 k d d 9d (since d 0). Now, taking the third equation and subtracting the first equation yields 80 4ad a a 5. Therefore, 5 k 5 5 k. a b First, since 0a b, 0. Now, if a b 8ab ab 40ab x. 8ab ab ab 9 a b x, then x a b 0 a b a b ab a b a b ab Cubing both sides of the equation, 9 x 9 x 8 x 9 x 9 x x 8 x x 80 x 4 5. At worst case, all of the chips labeled with letters from A to I can be drawn since there are not ten chips labeled with any one of the letters; this is chips. Of the remaining 7 letters, again at worst case, nine of each lettered chip could be drawn, which is 79 5 chips. Therefore, if one more chip was drawn, there must be chips with one specific letter removed. This makes the minimum number of chips removed

15 The graph is a semicircle symmetric to the y -axis, so the revolution yields a hemisphere with radius of length 4. Therefore, the volume is x x First, split the integral: dx dx dx. For the first 4x 4x 4x integral, use the substitution u 4 x, du xdx ; for the second integral, use the substitution v x, dv dx. This becomes du dv u 4v v x u arcsin 4x arcsin. Therefore, 4x arcsin 0 0 x 4x 0 x. 9 Using Hero s formula, since the semiperimeter of the triangle is 4, the area enclosed by the triangle is Therefore, the inscribed circle has radius of length 4 and the circumscribed circle has radius of length The positive difference in these lengths is tan B tan A tan B 4 4 tan 45 tan A B 7 tan B tan B tan Atan B tan B 7 tan B tan B 7 7, is on the graph of f, f 7a 9b 9a b. Additionally,. Since f has a point of inflection at Since f ' x ax bx f '' x ax b dx,, 0 f ' 8a b. Solving this system of equations yields a and b, so 9 8 ab. 9
