    This document contains two math problems. The first problem asks to prove that the sums of elements in subsets of a set of 5 positive integers with a maximum value of 9 cannot all be distinct. The second problem defines a function f(a,b) = af(b) + bf(a) and asks to find the values of f(1), f(0), and prove a formula for f(an) where n is a positive integer and a is a real number.
