(The total number of two-digit numbers)
(The number of two-digit numbers without a

Since and
are non-negative integers between
and
, either
,
, or
if and only if
or
.
There are ordered pairs
with
,
ordered pairs with
, and
ordered pair with
and
. So, there are
ordered pairs
such that
.
if and only if
and
or equivalently
and
. This gives
ordered pair
.
So, there are a total of ordered pairs
with
.
Since there are a total of ordered pairs
, there are
ordered pairs
with
.
Thus, the desired probability is .
Therefore there are coins in the stack.
Using the above observation we can easily construct such a stack. A stack of dimes would have height
, thus we need to add
. This can be done for example by replacing five dimes by nickels (for
), and one dime by a penny (for
).
Let , and
be the number of pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters used in the stack.
From the conditions above, we get the following equation:
Then we divide each side by five to get
Writing both sides in terms of mod 4, we have .
This means that the sum is divisible by 4. Therefore, the answer must be
Using Descartes' Circle Formula, we can assign curvatures to all the circles: ,
,
, and
(b/c it is the circle internally tangent to all the other circles, the radius of the bigger circle is negative). Then, we can solve:
Thus Bill's age is in the set .
As Jack is older, we only need to consider the cases where the tens digit of Bill's age is smaller than the ones digit. This leaves us with the options .
Checking each of them, we see that only works, and gives the solution
.
Now consider the area of . Clearly the triangles
and
are similar, as they have all angles equal. Their ratio is
, hence
. Now the area
of
can be computed as
=
.
Similarly we can find that as well.
Hence , and the answer is
.
The area of triangle ACE is 96. To find the area of triangle DBF, let D be (4, 0), let B be (0, 9), and let F be (12, 3). You can then use the shoelace theorem to find the area of DBF, which is 42.
From we get that
.
Following this pattern, we get .
Now, were we to assign a mass of to
and a mass of
to
, we'd have
. Scaling this down by
(to get
, which puts
and
in terms of the masses of
and
), we assign a mass of
to
and a mass of
to
.
Now, to balance and
on
, we must give
a mass of
.
Finally, the ratio of to
is given by the ratio of the mass of
to the mass of
, which is
.
Affine transformations preserve ratios of distances, and for any pair of triangles, there is an affine transformation that maps the first one onto the second one. This is why the answer is the same for any , and we just need to compute it for any single triangle.
We can choose the points ,
, and
. This way we will have
, and
. The situation is shown in the picture below:
The point is the intersection of the lines
and
. The points on the first line have the form
, the points on the second line have the form
. Solving for
we get
, hence
.
The ratio can now be computed simply by observing the
coordinates of
,
, and
:
Therefore , and thus
.
Shift down the first sequence by and the second by
so that the two sequences become
and
. The first becomes multiples of
and the second becomes multiples of
. Their intersection is the multiples of
up to
. There are
multiples of
. There are
distinct numbers in
.
We now find the circumradius with the formula . Solving for
gives
.
Substituting all of this back into our formula gives:So,
What is ? The faces
must have the same color, and at the same time faces
must have the same color. It turns out that
the set containing just the two cubes where all six faces have the same color.
Therefore , and the result is
.
Suppose we break the situation into cases that contain four vertical faces of the same color:
I. Two opposite sides of same color: There are 3 ways to choose the two sides, and then two colors possible, so .
II. One face different from all the others: There are 6 ways to choose this face, and 2 colors, so .
III. All faces are the same: There are 2 colors, and so two ways for all faces to be the same.
Adding them up, we have a total of ways to have four vertical faces the same color. The are
ways to color the cube, so the answer is
.
Therefore, the area of the new shaded region is . Lastly, we must subtract the area of the circle that we added earlier,
, and we get
.
