How many ways to spell the word COUNT
yinglinwu 8
This is the problem 2.771 from the book Competition Math For Middle School. The printed answer is 16, which is obtained by going through the triangle. I have no idea about what's going on there. Can anyone help explain please?
BTW, my understanding about a way to spell COUNT is simply to choose an order of those letters and write down them one by one at their designated locations, like writing down U first at the 3rd location, then O at the 2nd position, N at 4th, T at 5th, and C at 1st. Therefore, in total we should have 5! ways to spell the word.

BABBAGE'S THEOREM EXTENSION
Mathgloggers 3
A few days ago I came across. this interesting result is someone interested in proving this.

Geometry Proof
strongstephen 1
Proof that choosing four distinct points at random has an equal probability of getting a convex quadrilateral vs a concave one.
not cohesive proof alert!
NOTE: By choosing four distinct points, that means no three points lie on the same line on the Gaussian Plane.
Start by picking three of the four points. Next, graph the regions where the fourth point would make the quadrilateral convex or concave. In diagram 1 below, you can see the regions where the fourth point would be convex or concave. Of course, there is the centre region (the shaded triangle), but in an infinite plane, the probability the fourth point ends up in the finite region approaches 0.
Next, I want to prove to you the area of convex/concave, or rather, the probability a point ends up in each area, is the same. Referring to the second diagram, you can flip each concave region over the line perpendicular to the angle bisector of which the region is defined. (Just look at it and you'll get what it means.) Now, each concave region has an almost perfect 1:1 probability correspondence to another convex region. The only difference is the finite region (the triangle, shaded). Again, however, the actual significance (probability) of this approaches 0.
If I call each of the convex region's probability P(a), P(c), and P(e) and the concave ones P(b), P(d), P(f), assuming areas a and b are on opposite sides (same with c and d, e and f) you can get:
P(a) = P(b)
P(c) = P(d)
P(e) = P(f)
and P(a) + P(c) + P(e) = P(convex)
and P(b) + P(d) + P(f) = P(concave)
therefore:
P(convex) = P(concave)

May is an exciting month! National MATHCOUNTS is the second week of May in Washington D.C. and our Founder, Richard Rusczyk will be presenting a seminar, Preparing Strong Math Students for College and Careers, on May 11th.
Are you interested in working towards MATHCOUNTS and don’t know where to start? We have you covered! If you have taken Prealgebra, then you are ready for MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Basics. Already aiming for State or National MATHCOUNTS and harder AMC 8 problems? Then our MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Advanced course is for you.

Introducing myself at AoPS, and what's your magic wand?
asuth_asuth 1034
Hi!
I'm Andrew Sutherland. I'm the new Chief Product Officer at AoPS. As you may have read, Richard is retiring and Ben Kornell and I are working together to lead the company now. I'm leading all the software and digital stuff at AoPS. I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself! I'm really excited to be part of the special community that is AoPS.
Previously, I founded Quizlet as a 15-year-old high school student. I did Course 6 at MIT and then left to lead Quizlet full-time for a total of 14 years. I took a few years off and now I'm doing AoPS! I wrote more about all that on my blog: https://asuth.com/im-joining-aops
I have a question for all of you. If you could wave a magic wand, and change anything about AoPS, what would it be? All suggestions welcome! Thank you.

Alcumus Rating
awesometriangles 4
My Alcumus rating for CP used to be something like a 90, then I went to do some homework for a class, and when I came back to alcumus, it is now a 40. I don't know what happened and I haven't touched C&P in the last hour or two, and I haven't gotten any wrong in it or anything to majorly decrease my rating. I also checked the topics, and each was either green or blue, like how I left it. Is this just me?
EDIT: My level is still the same too..., and idk if i should add an image, and if i should, what should I screenshot?
