1. The 100th root of X is simply X1/100. So the 100th root of 101010 would be 10108

2. Let N be a number with the mentioned properties. N + 2 = 3K1, where K1 is a natual number, and N + 2 = 4K2, where K2 is also a natural number. So N + 2 can be divided by 3x4 = 12. the multiples of 12 that are smaller than 100 are 12,24,36,48,60,72,84 and 96. Using the sum of an AP, we find that the sum of these numbers is (12+96)(8/2) = 432. Subtracting 2 for each number, we get the sum we're looking for, which is 416.

Agree with the above answers for first two parts

3)

No solution for integer x

2x will be even

3x will be odd

you can figure out the rest of the reasoning

4) a = +1 or -1

since it sounds like homework, I'll let you figure out why

5)

x2 - 4x + 1

Again, I'll let you figure out why

6) 81 is one of the sides.

And again, .... you know what

if a quadratic equation has 1 root in the form of a+ib, then there is always another root in the form a-ib. If you know the roots finding equation is straight forward

6) 81 is one of the sides.

And again, .... you know what

1. 100th root of 10(1010) == 100th root of 10100 == 10100/100 == 101 == 10

2. Set S of all Integers x < 100 such that x mod 3 == 1 {1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34, 37, 40, 43, 46, 49, 52, 55, 58, 61, 64, 67, 70, 76, 79, 82, 85, 88, 91, 94, 97}

Of these the ones y such that y mod 4 == 2 (every 4th one) {10, 22, 34, 46, 58, 70, 82, 94}

Therefore SUM(10+22+34+46+58+70+82+94) = 416

4. I believe the answer is a = 0. That assumes that the quadratics have one real root x and that it is the same for both equations

Sorry, J.green. But I found these questions in the sample paper of International Mathematics Olympiad and I was not ableto get it. So I thought to sought some help from geniuses. :P

Oh, I tried the Brazilian olympiad once. Got 12 out of 25 on phase 1, which was exactly the minimum score to get to phase 2, that year. Then on phase 2 I got a nice 0. I could only do 1 question, but I made a little mistake in the end and gave a wrong answer. That's when I realized math was not for me...
