大提示:
同时使用去年的倍数关系和今年的平方关系。
Use last year’s relation and this year’s square relation together
解答:
设 Ana 今年 岁,Bonita 今年 岁。于是
代入可得
可以看出 ,因为那会使 Ana 和 Bonita 同龄,所以 。
于是 ,而年龄差 。
所以正确答案是 D。
Let be Ana’s current age and be Bonita’s current age. Then
Substitution gives
We can see that since that would make Ana and Bonita the same age, so we know that
This gives us that and
Thus, D is the correct answer.

一个盒子里有 个红球、 个绿球、 个黄球、 个蓝球、 个白球和 个黑球。从盒中不放回地取球,最少要取多少个球,才能保证至少取到 个同色球?
A box contains red balls, green balls, yellow balls, blue balls, white balls, and black balls. What is the minimum number of balls that must be drawn from the box without replacement to guarantee that at least balls of a single color will be drawn?
小提示:
为了避免某种颜色达到 个,每种数量足够多的颜色最多取 个。
To avoid getting of a color, draw at most from each large color
大提示:
对少于 个的颜色,可以把这种颜色全取出。
For colors with fewer than , all of that color can be drawn
解答:
在还不能保证有 个同色球的最坏情况下,可以取出所有黑球、白球、蓝球,以及红、绿、黄各 个。
此时红、绿、黄三种颜色都只有 个,而其余三种颜色本来就少于十五个,所以仍可能没有任何颜色达到十五个。
总数为 再多取一个球,就必定使某种颜色达到 个,因此答案为 。
所以正确答案是 B。
Note that we can pull as many as balls of each color without ensuring that balls of one color are drawn.
This means that we can draw all of the black, white and blue balls, along with red, green, and yellow balls.
This gives us a total of We need to add one at the end, however, to ensure that we get that th ball of some color,
Thus, B is the correct answer.
5.
和为 的连续整数最多可以有多少个?
What is the greatest number of consecutive integers whose sum is
小提示:
很长的连续整数段可以围绕零对称。
A long consecutive block can be centered around zero
大提示:
利用项数必须整除 这一条件。
Use divisibility of by the number of terms
解答:
设连续整数共有 项,首项为 。它们的和为 ,所以 必须整除 。因此项数不可能超过 。
这个上界确实可以达到: 共有 项,其和为 。
所以连续整数的最大项数是 。
所以正确答案是 D。
Suppose there are consecutive integers with first term Their sum is so must divide Therefore the number of terms cannot exceed
This bound is attained by which has terms and sum
Thus the greatest possible number of consecutive integers is
Thus, D is the correct answer.

对下面多少种四边形,存在一个位于该四边形所在平面内的点,它到四个顶点的距离都相等?
• 正方形
• 非正方形的矩形
• 非正方形的菱形
• 既不是矩形也不是菱形的平行四边形
• 不是平行四边形的等腰梯形
For how many of the following types of quadrilaterals does there exist a point in the plane of the quadrilateral that is equidistant from all four vertices of the quadrilateral?
• a square
• a rectangle that is not a square
• a rhombus that is not a square
• a parallelogram that is not a rectangle or a rhombus
• an isosceles trapezoid that is not a parallelogram
答案:C
小提示:
到四个顶点等距意味着四边形可以内接于一个圆。
Equidistant from all four vertices means cyclic
大提示:
对四边形,检查对角是否互补。
For quadrilaterals, check whether opposite angles can be supplementary
解答:
注意,如果某个点到四个顶点的距离都相等,那么这个点就是该图形外接圆的圆心。
于是问题变成:这些图形中哪些是圆内接四边形(存在外接圆)。可以使用的一个条件是:对角互补。
显然,正方形和非正方形的矩形都可以(对角都是直角,和为 )。
非正方形的菱形不行,因为它的对角虽然相等,但不是 。
既不是矩形也不是菱形的平行四边形面临同样的问题,所以它同样不是圆内接四边形。
不是平行四边形的等腰梯形,按定义其对角互补,所以它是圆内接四边形。
所以正确答案是 C。
Note that if a point is equidistant from all the vertices, then that point is the center of the shape’s circumcircle.
The question then becomes which of these shapes is cyclic (has a circumcircle). One condition that we can use is that opposite angles are supplementary.
Clearly, a square and rectangle that is not a square work (opposite angles are right, adding up to ).
A rhombus that is not a square does not work, since opposite angles are equal, but they are not
A parallelogram that is not a rectangle or a rhombus faces the same problem as above, making it not cyclic as well.
An isosceles trapezoid that is not a parallelogram by definition has supplementary opposite angles, making it cyclic.
Thus, C is the correct answer.
7.
两条斜率分别为 和 的直线相交于 。这两条直线与直线 围成的三角形面积是多少?
Two lines with slopes and intersect at What is the area of the triangle enclosed by these two lines and the line
小提示:
求三条直线两两的交点。
Find all three pairwise intersections of the lines
大提示:
对得到的三角形使用距离公式或鞋带公式。
Use the distance or shoelace formula for the resulting triangle
解答:
过 的两条直线的方程为
它们与 的交点分别是 和 。
因此三角形的三个顶点是 和 。连接后两个顶点的线段长为 ,它的中点是 ,而从 到这个中点的距离为 。
因此面积为 所以正确答案是 C。
The two lines through have equations
Their intersections with are and , respectively.
Thus the vertices are and . The segment joining the last two points has length , its midpoint is , and the distance from to that midpoint is .
The area is therefore Thus, C is the correct answer.
8.
下图显示了一条直线 ,其上有由正方形和线段组成的规则无限重复图案。
除恒等变换外,在下面四类平面刚体运动中,有多少类的某个变换会把该图形变到自身?
• 绕直线 上某点旋转
• 沿平行于直线 的方向平移
• 关于直线 反射
• 关于垂直于直线 的某条直线反射
The figure below shows line with a regular, infinite, recurring pattern of squares and line segments.
How many of the following four kinds of rigid motion transformations of the plane in which this figure is drawn, other than the identity transformation, will transform this figure into itself?
• some rotation around a point of line
• some translation in the direction parallel to line
• the reflection across line
• some reflection across a line perpendicular to line
小提示:
沿 方向的平移会保留重复图案。
Translations along preserve the repeating pattern
大提示:
检查反射是否会把斜线段方向反过来。
Check whether reflections reverse the slanted segments
解答:
第一种变换可行:可以绕 上某点旋转 ,旋转中心取在一个朝上的正方形与一个朝下的正方形之间的中点。
第二种变换也可行:只要把图形沿 向右平移,直到各正方形重新对齐即可。
第三种不行,因为这样的反射会使线段方向相反。
第四种变换同样不行,因为斜线段又会指向错误的方向。
所以正确答案是 C。
The first transformation works, as we can rotate around the midpoint between an upward-facing and downward-facing square.
The second also works, as we can just move to the right until the squares line up with each other again.
The third fails, as a reflection would cause the line segments to face the opposite direction.
The fourth transformation also doesn’t work since the diagonal lines would again be facing in the wrong direction.
Thus, C is the correct answer.
9.
最大的三位正整数 是多少,使得前 个正整数之和 不是 前 个正整数之积的因子?
What is the greatest three-digit positive integer for which the sum of the first positive integers is not a divisor of the product of the first positive integers?
小提示:
该和 等于 。
The sum equals
大提示:
障碍来自 带来新的质因子时。
The obstruction comes from when contributes a new prime factor
解答:
前 个正整数之和为 我们需要它不能整除 。
设 。若 是合数,把它写成 ,其中 。当 时,两个不同的因数 和 都出现在 中。当 时,有 ,于是两个不同的倍数 和 都出现在 中,所以 也整除这个阶乘。因此 能被 整除,从而
反之,若 是质数,这个质因子就不会出现在 中,整除性不成立。由于 是质数,而 和 都是合数,所以最大的三位数值为
所以正确答案是 B。
The sum of the first numbers is We need this to not divide
Put . If is composite, write with . When , the distinct factors and both occur in . When , we have , and the two multiples and both occur in , so divides that factorial as well. Thus is divisible by , and consequently
Conversely, if is prime, that prime factor does not occur in , so the divisibility fails. Since is prime while and are composite, the greatest three-digit value is
Thus, B is the correct answer.

一个 英尺宽、 英尺长的矩形地板铺有 块一英尺见方的方砖。一只虫子从一个角沿直线走到对角。包括第一块和最后一块方砖在内,它经过多少块方砖?
A rectangular floor that is feet wide and feet long is tiled with one-foot square tiles. A bug walks from one corner to the opposite corner in a straight line. Including the first and the last tile, how many tiles does the bug visit?
小提示:
数对角线穿过多少条网格线。
Count every grid line the diagonal crosses
大提示:
因为 和 互质,对角线不会经过内部网格顶点。
Because and are relatively prime, it never passes through an interior grid corner
解答:
每穿过一条内部网格线,虫子就进入一块新方砖。
因此它经过的方砖数等于 (第一块方砖)加上它穿过的网格线条数。
因为 与 互质,对角线不会经过内部格点,所以不会同时穿过一条竖线和一条横线。
它穿过 条水平线和 条竖直线,因此一共经过 块方砖。
所以正确答案是 C。
Note that every time the bug crosses a vertical or horizontal line, the bug visits one new tile.
This means that the number of tiles the bug visits is (the first tile) plus the number of lines it crosses.
The bug never walks over a corner since and are relatively prime, so we don’t have to worry about that.
The bug crosses horizontal lines and vertical lines for a total of tiles.
Thus, C is the correct answer.
11.
的正整数因子中,有多少个是完全平方数或完全立方数(或两者都是)?
How many positive integer divisors of are perfect squares or perfect cubes (or both)?
小提示:
先分解 。
Factor first
大提示:
对因子指数为偶数或为 的倍数的情形使用容斥。
Use inclusion-exclusion on divisor exponents that are even or multiples of
解答:
对 作质因数分解,得到 。
注意完全平方数的质因数指数为偶数,完全立方数的质因数指数能被 整除。
偶数指数有 种选择,从 到 ; 的倍数指数有 种选择,从 到 。
因此平方数有 种选择,立方数有 种选择;但还要减去重复计数的六次幂。
同理,六次幂的质因数指数必须能被 整除。每个指数有 种选择,即 和 。
因此六次幂共有 个。于是完全平方数或完全立方数总共有 个。
所以正确答案是 C。
Taking the prime factorization of we get
Note that a perfect square has even exponents for its prime factors, and a cube’s exponents are divisible by
There are options for an even exponent, from through and options for multiples of from through
This gives us options for the squares and options for the cubes. We have to subtract out the sixth powers, however.
Using the same logic, sixth powers have to have exponents of prime factors be divisible by There are options, and
This means that there are sixth powers. This gives us a total of perfect squares or perfect cubes.
Thus, C is the correct answer.
12.

Melanie computes the mean the median and the modes of the values that are the dates in the months of Thus her data consist of copies of copies of and so on through copies of then copies of copies of and copies of Let be the median of the modes. Which of the following statements is true?
小提示:
判断哪些日期出现 次,哪些日期出现次数较少。
Understand which dates appear times and which appear fewer times
大提示:
根据日历计数分别比较平均数、中位数和众数。
Compare the mean, median, and modes from the calendar counts
解答:
众数是从 到 的所有整数,所以它们的中位数为 。
数据共有 项,所以中位数 是第 个数。日期 到 共占 个位置,所以 。
所有日期之和为 所以 。
因此 所以正确答案是 E。
The modes are all the integers from through so their median is
There are entries, so is the rd number. The dates from through occupy positions, so
The sum of all dates is Hence
Therefore Thus, E is the correct answer.

大提示:
再单独排除恰好两个交点的情况。
Then separately rule out exactly two intersection points
解答:
可达到的值有 和 。四条平行线给出 ;四线共点给出 ;三条平行线被第四条截得给出 ;三线共点加一条不过该点的直线给出 ;三条线成三角形,第四条平行于其中一边给出 ;一般位置四条直线给出 。
还需要排除恰好 个交点的情形。取两条不平行的直线,设它们交于 。若第三条直线也经过 ,则任何不经过 的第四条直线,都会与这三条共点直线中的至少两条交于两个不同的新点;否则四条直线全都经过 ,就只有一个交点。若第三条直线不经过 ,那么它要只产生一个新交点,就必须与前两条直线之一平行。此时第四条直线若经过已有的某个交点,就一定会与那条平行线交于新的点;若两个已有交点都不经过,它会立刻产生新的交点。因此恰好两个交点是不可能的。
所以可能值为 ,其和为 。正确答案是 D。
The values and are attainable. Four parallel lines give , four concurrent lines give , three parallel lines cut by a fourth give , three concurrent lines plus a fourth not through that point give , three lines forming a triangle plus a fourth parallel to one side give , and four lines in general position give .
It remains to rule out . Choose two nonparallel lines, meeting at . If a third line also passes through , then a fourth line not through intersects at least two of those three concurrent lines at two different new points; otherwise all four lines pass through , giving only one point. If the third line does not pass through , then to create only one new point it must be parallel to one of the first two lines. A fourth distinct line cannot pass through either existing intersection without meeting the parallel line at a new point, and if it passes through neither, it creates a new intersection immediately. Thus exactly two intersection points are impossible.
Thus the possible values are , whose sum is . Thus, D is the correct answer.
15.

小提示:
连接相切圆的圆心。
Connect centers of tangent circles
大提示:
阴影面积等于大圆面积减去所有小圆面积。
The shaded area is the large circle area minus the areas of the small circles

一个孩子用形状相同但颜色不同的立方体搭塔。用 个红色立方体、 个蓝色立方体和 个绿色立方体,可以搭出多少种高度为 个立方体的不同塔?(会剩下一个立方体。)
A child builds towers using identically shaped cubes of different colors. How many different towers with a height cubes can the child build with red cubes, blue cubes, and green cubes? (One cube will be left out.)
小提示:
先选定被省略的那种颜色,再数八个立方体的所有排列。
Count all arrangements of eight cubes after choosing the omitted color
大提示:
对重复颜色用阶乘分母修正。
Correct for repeated colors with factorial denominators
解答:
给定一个合法的高度为 的塔,各颜色数量唯一确定了未使用的立方体;把该立方体放在顶端。反过来,从全部 个立方体的任意排列中去掉顶端立方体,都会得到一个合法的高度为 的塔。这两个操作互为逆操作,所以所求塔与全部 个立方体的排列一一对应。
高度为 的塔共有 种排列,但同色立方体之间的交换会造成重复计算。
因此要分别除以红色立方体的 种排列、蓝色立方体的 种排列和绿色立方体的 种排列。
所以合法排列数为
所以正确答案是 D。
Given a valid height- tower, its color counts determine the one unused cube; place that cube on top. Conversely, removing the top cube from any arrangement of all cubes gives a valid height- tower. These operations are inverses, so the desired towers are in one-to-one correspondence with arrangements of all cubes.
There are ways to make a tower of height but we are overcounting since there are multiple cubes of the same color.
We have to divide through by ways to arrange the red cubes, for the blue cubes, and for the green cubes.
Therefore, the number of valid arrangements is
Thus, D is the correct answer.
18.

What is the least possible value of where is a real number?
小提示:
围绕 对称地配对因子。
Pair factors symmetrically around
大提示:
令 来改写这个四次式。
Rewrite the quartic using
解答:
先把前两个因子和后两个因子相乘,得到
注意这两项相差 。可把它写成平方差:
再加上 ,得到
平方数非负,所以只要能让内部表达式为 ,就能让平方项为 。
判别式为 ,为正,因此确实存在使平方项为 的取值。
因此最小值为 所以正确答案是 B。
Multiplying the first two terms and the last terms yields
Note that these two terms differ by We can try to express this as a difference of squares, which is
Adding to this gets us
Squares are non-negative, so as long as we find a way to make the inner expression we can make the square
The discriminant is which is positive meaning that there is a value that makes the square
This means that the minimum value would be Thus, B is the correct answer.

数字 ,,, 被随机放入 方格的 个格子中。每格一个数,每个数用一次。每一行和每一列的数字和都是奇数的概率是多少?
The numbers are randomly placed into the squares of a grid. Each square gets one number, and each of the numbers is used once. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers in each row and each column is odd?
小提示:
一个行或列的和为奇数时,其中偶数个数必须为零或二。
An odd row or column sum has either zero or two even entries
大提示:
通过偶数所在格子的位置来计数。
Count placements by where the even numbers go
解答:
行或列的和为奇数,当且仅当其中有 个或 个偶数。
要满足这一点, 个偶数所在的格子必须组成一个边平行于大正方形的矩形。
理解这一点的方法是:先选一个偶数所在格子,然后需要在同一行选另一个偶数格 ,在同一列选另一个偶数格 。
最后一个偶数必须与 同列、与 同行,于是形成上述矩形。
这样的矩形有四个 、两个 、两个 、一个 。
因此偶数位置共有 种。
偶数有 种排列,奇数有 种排列。
所以满足条件的排列共有 种。
所有排列共有 种,因此所求概率为
所以正确答案是 B。
Note that the only way to get an odd sum is if there are either or even numbers in the row or column.
The only way for this to happen is if the even numbers form a rectangle with sides parallel to the large square.
The way to see this is we choose a spot for the first even number. Then we need to choose another square in the same row, and column, to be even.
The final even has to be in same column as and the same row as This forms the aforementioned rectangle.
There are four rectangles, two rectangles, two rectangles, and one rectangle.
This gives a total of possible sets of positions for the even numbers.
There are ways to arrange the even numbers and ways to arrange the odd numbers.
This means that there are a total of configurations of squares that satisfy the condition.
There are a total of arrangements with no restrictions. The probability is therefore
Thus, B is the correct answer.

取垂直于三角形平面的截面。
Take a cross-section perpendicular to the triangle plane
大提示:
三角形的内切圆半径控制球到边的切线距离。
The inradius of the triangle controls the tangent distance to the sphere
解答:
长为 的边上的高为 所以三角形的面积为 ,半周长为 。因此它的内切圆半径为
设 是 在三角形所在平面上的正投影,并记 。因为三条边所在的直线都与球相切,所以 就是三角形的内心,它到每条边的垂直距离都是 。又因为 到每条边所在直线的距离都等于球的半径 ,所以由勾股定理得 因此 。
所以正确答案是 D。
The altitude to the side of length is so the triangle has area and semiperimeter . Its inradius is therefore
Let be the perpendicular projection of onto the triangle’s plane, and let . Because all three side-lines are tangent to the sphere, is the incenter and its perpendicular distance to each side is . The distance from to each side-line is the sphere’s radius, , so the Pythagorean theorem gives Hence
Thus, D is the correct answer.

所以 从正确区间中选出的概率总是 。
情况 从 中选取,而 是 或
由对称性,这种情况的概率与情况 相同。
情况 和 都从 中选取
由于要考察无穷多个 数对,可以使用几何概率。画出 的区域。
阴影面积占整个图形的 ,所以这种情况成功的概率为 。
把四个加权概率相加,得到
所以正确答案是 B。
We can case on whether and are chosen from the interval or from and Each case has a chance of happening, since they depend on two coin flips.
Case and are either or
and need to be different, which happens with a probability.
Case is either or and is chosen from
If then has to be chosen from and if then has to be chosen from
This means that always has a probability of being chosen from the correct interval.
Case is chosen from and is either or
This has the same probability as case due to symmetry.
Case and are chosen from
We can use geometric probability since we are working with an infinite number of pairs. We graph
The shaded area covers of the graph, showing that there is a probability of this case working.
Adding the four weighted probabilities gives
Thus, B is the correct answer.

对从 到 (含端点)的多少个整数 ,下式是整数?(规定 。)
For how many integers between and inclusive, is an integer? (Recall that )
小提示:
将表达式与一个多项式系数联系起来。
Relate the expression to a multinomial coefficient
大提示:
剩下的条件是 是否整除 。
The remaining condition is whether divides
解答:
解决本题的一个重要事实是 始终是整数。
这是因为它等于把 个物体分成 个无序的、每组大小为 的组的方法数。
现在有
因此,只要 整除 ,原式就是整数;这等价于 整除 。
设 为合数。若 ,其中 ,则两个不同因数 和 都出现在 中,所以 能被 整除。若 ,其中 ,则 含有两个不同因数 和 ,其乘积是 的倍数。因此每个合数 都符合条件。另外, 的情形也可以直接验证成立。
反过来,若 是质数,分母中 的指数为 ,而 中该质因子的指数为 ,所以原式不是整数。
当 时,分母含有 ,而 只含有 ,所以这种情况也不成立。
不超过 的质数有 个,再加上 ,共有 个不符合条件的 值。
因此所求答案为 。
所以正确答案是 D。
One fact that greatly helps with this problem is realizing that is always an integer.
This is because it is the number of ways to split up objects into unordered groups of size
Now, we get that
Therefore, whenever divides the original expression is an integer; this is equivalent to dividing
Suppose is composite. If with , then the distinct factors and both occur in , so is divisible by . If with , then contains the distinct factors and , whose product is a multiple of . Thus every composite works. The case also works directly.
Conversely, if is prime, the exponent of in the denominator is while its exponent in is so the expression is not an integer.
For the denominator contains while contains only so this case also fails.
There are primes at most and adding we get values for that do not work.
Therefore, the desired answer is
Thus, D is the correct answer.
