Hello Every47ζ(3)0ln2tanh(x)dx\quad \displaystyle \dfrac{4}{7 \zeta(3)}\int_{0}^{\infty}{\ln^2{ \tanh(x)} dx}

This is the 4th^{th} Part of the contest started by me. It is the Open Proof Contest! This time there will be 10 questions(3 from U and 7 are mine ). The rules remain the same except for that the persons who's questions are listed have to do the 'or' one part. You have to mail the PDFs or images or documents to opencontestproofs@gmail.com. You can submit the solution in parts. To make a PDF you can go to TeXeR.

Here are the questions :

  1. Find all 'a' such that 24 divides a2+34a+1919a^2 +34a + 1919 By NIHAR\rightarrow \text{By NIHAR} OROR
    Find all integral solutions to the following equation: 1m+1n1mn2=34 \frac{1}{m} + \frac{1}{n} - \frac{1}{mn^2} = \frac{3}{4} By ARIAN\rightarrow \text{By ARIAN} .

  2. Let a,b,ca,b,c be positive reals satisfying a3+b3+c3+abc=4a^3 + b^3 + c^3 + abc = 4. Prove that (5a2+bc)2(a+b)(a+c)+(5b2+ca)2(b+c)(b+a)+(5c2+ab)2(c+a)(c+b)(a3+b3+c3+6)2a+b+c\frac{(5a^2+bc)^2}{(a+b)(a+c)} + \frac{(5b^2+ca)^2}{(b+c)(b+a)} + \frac{(5c^2+ab)^2}{(c+a)(c+b)} \ge \frac{(a^3+b^3+c^3+6)^2}{a+b+c} By Parth Lohmi OROR Prove that a8+b8+c8a3b3c3>1a+1b+1c\large{\frac{a^{8}+b^{8}+c^{8}}{a^{3}b^{3}c^{3}}>\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}+ \frac{1}{c}} where a,b,c>0a,b,c>0 by Tanishq Varshney

  3. nn circles are drawn with a radii length of 1 unit where n2 n \ge 2 , such that every two circles intersect.Prove that the number of intersection points is at least nn. By Arian OROR In ΔABC\Delta ABC , if BC2=AC(AC+AB)BC^2=AC(AC+AB) , then prove that mCAB=2×mCBAm\angle CAB = 2 \times m\angle CBA. By Nihar

  4. Find all polynomials such that p(x+2)=p(x)+4x+4p(x+2) = p(x) + 4x + 4.

  5. If a2,b2,c2a^2 , b^2 , c^2 are in AP then prove that b+ca,c+ab,a+bc\frac{b+c}{a},\frac{c+a}{b},\frac{a+b}{c} are in HP..

  6. Let x be any real number. Prove that among the numbers x,2x,....,(n1)xx,2x,....,(n-1)x there is one number that differs from an integer by at most 1n\frac{1}{n}.

  7. The sum of r terms of an AP is denoted by SrS_{r}. And SmSn=m2n2\dfrac{S_{m}}{S_{n}} = \frac{m^2}{n^2}. Prove that the ratio of mth^{th} term to nth^{th} term is 2m12n1\dfrac{2m-1}{2n-1}.

  8. Consider all lines which meet the graph of y=10!x109!x9+8!x87!x7+.....+2!x21!x+0!y = 10! x^{10} - 9! x^9 + 8! x^8 - 7! x^7 + ..... + 2! x^2 - 1! x + 0! in 10 distinct points say (x1,y1),.....,(x10,y10)(x_1,y_1), ..... ,(x_{10},y_{10}). Then show that the value of i=110xi10\displaystyle \dfrac{\displaystyle \sum_{i = 1}^{10}{x_i}}{10} is independent of the line and also give its value.

  9. Let p > 3 be an odd prime. Suppose k=1p11k=ab\displaystyle \sum_{k = 1}^{p-1}{\dfrac{1}{k}} = \frac{a}{b}, where GCD(a,b) = 1. Prove that 'a' is divisble by 'p'.

  10. If a,b are +ve integers such that the number a+1b+b+1a\dfrac{a+1}{b} + \dfrac{b+1}{a} is also an integer, then prove that GCD(a,b)a+b\leq \sqrt{a+b} .

Do Reshare and Participate. This is the best one till now and probably will be help next year after this.

Deadline 10th June 2015

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

  • Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
  • Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
  • Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
  • Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Sorry for the inconvinience , I have a phase test this week and there are 15 entries to see. I will surely do it by monday

Kunal Verma - 6 years ago

hmmm... I was wondering. is π a mathematical way of saying x?

Sir, for the OR question, do we choose only one or we do both of them?

Figel Ilham - 6 years ago

Point 1 - I am not sir. (Just 14years old).
And for the or question U have to choose one of them. ¨\ddot\smile

@Rajdeep Dhingra U are really genius and mastermind. The problems are insane. Currently, I only did one. For writing in latex, what font, what size and what paper for OPC-4?

Figel Ilham - 6 years ago

Log in to reply

@Figel Ilham Thanks. Keep on trying they are very easy. Especially 8,4,51,2(or).
Just curious : - Which one have U done ?

Rajdeep Dhingra - 6 years ago

@Rajdeep Dhingra Ineq 2 (Tanishq Varshney) Really easy? I don't get any solutions for number 1 or it is said null.

Figel Ilham - 6 years ago

@Rajdeep Dhingra For writing in latex, what font, what size and what paper for OPC-4?

Figel Ilham - 6 years ago

@Figel Ilham Any. Just the sol should be clear. It can be even in Ur handwriting.

Rajdeep Dhingra - 6 years ago

in no.7, it should be mentioned that the first term is not zero.

^True dat.

Kunal Verma - 6 years ago

@Rajdeep Dhingra You didn't even check your mail today. :/ I managed to pull off 6 and 9 and I really wanted you to look at them.

Kunal Verma - 6 years ago

I have two doubts.

1) Q2) in Tanishq's alternative, if a = b= c, then equality between the given expressions holds.

2) Q3) in Arian's alternative, does intersecting of circles at one single point i.e. the circles touching each other count? Because if it does, then there will always be a case where there are n  1n \ - \ 1 intersection points for n drawn circles.

Thanks for spotting it out. I will surely change it.

Dude you haven't opened the proof contest ID in a while. I thought you opened it every afternoon.

Kunal Verma - 6 years ago

Log in to reply

@Kunal Verma Busy, will open when free.

Rajdeep Dhingra - 6 years ago

Well, how do I end the document? When I click on render as PDF, I get the message "Error compiling LaTeX. ! LaTeX Error: There's no line here to end". Please help me @Rajdeep Dhingra and others

Manish Dash - 6 years ago

Just send me a mail (On my real ID(the "rajdeep" one)) and I will see where the problem is.

Rajdeep Dhingra - 6 years ago

@Rajdeep Dhingra Dude.

Kunal Verma - 5 years, 12 months ago

I have a problem with Q(5). (b+c)/a+(c+a)/b+(a+b)/c(b+c)/a+(c+a)/b+(a+b)/c should be in HP.

Wait I will look into it. I think its AP

Rajdeep Dhingra - 6 years ago

Log in to reply

@Rajdeep Dhingra I too think the question should refer to H.P. I will send you a proof for them being in H.P.

Kunal Verma - 6 years ago

@Kunal Verma Thanks I will change it.

Rajdeep Dhingra - 6 years ago

@Rajdeep Dhingra Btw what about the other solutions I sent. I did not get any replies regarding them.

Kunal Verma - 6 years ago

Log in to reply

@Kunal Verma I check the inbox every afternoon so U will get the reply as soon as I check it. ¨\ddot\smile

Rajdeep Dhingra - 6 years ago

I'm having problem in ending the latex on AoPS. It's getting annoying everytime I see "There's no line to end." when I click Render as PDF. Is there any other way?

Kunal Verma - 6 years ago

Log in to reply

Go here and paste the LateX. Take a screen shot or click save to Google Drive and mail me the Image. Or U could Just check whether Ur LaTeX\LaTeX is right or not and try again. ¨\ddot\smile
