Find all real values of a for which the equation x4 −2ax2 +x+a2 −a = 0 has
all its roots real.
Find all primes p and q such that p2 + 7pq + q2 is the square of an integer.
Prove that the product of the first 200 positive even integers differs from the
product of the first 200 positive odd integers by a multiple of 401.
Suppose the integers 1,2,3,...,10 are split into two disjoint collections
a1,a2,a3,a4,a5 and b1,b2,b3,b4,b5 suchthat
a1 <a2 <a3 <a4 <a5, b1 >b2 >b3 >b4 >b5.
(i) Show that the larger number in any pair {aj,bj}, 1 ≤ j ≤ 5, is at least 6.
(ii) Show that |a1 −b1|+|a2 −b2|+|a3 −b3|+|a4 −b4|+|a5 −b5| = 25 for
every such partition.
