Croatia Team Selection Test 2008 106

This document contains 4 math problems: 1) Find the minimum value of two expressions involving positive variables x, y, z. 2) Determine which positive integers n have rational numbers a and b that are not integers but whose sum and nth powers are integers. 3) Prove that the medians of two triangles formed by point M on side BC of triangle ABC are the same length given conditions about the centroids. 4) Find the smallest positive integer k such that every k-element subset of a set S of odd positive integers less than 30m, not multiples of 5, contains two numbers where one divides the other.

xy+yz
(b)
x

2 For which n N do there exist rational numbers a, b which are not integers such that both
a +b and a
n
+b
n
are integers?
3 Point M is taken on side BC of a triangle ABC such that the centroid T
c
of triangle ABM
lies on the circumcircle of ACM and the centroid T
b
of ACM lies on the circumcircle of
ABM. Prove that the medians of the triangles ABM and ACM from M are of the same
length.
4 Let S be the set of all odd positive integers less than 30m which are not multiples of 5, where
m is a given positive integer. Find the smallest positive integer k such that each k-element
subset of S contains two distinct numbers, one of which divides the other.
