2018 AIME II Proposals

by djmathman, Mar 23, 2018, 9:20 PM

pretty unguessable which ones were mine tbh
2018 AIME II #15 wrote:
Find the number of functions $f$ from $\{0,1,2,3,4,5,6\}$ to the integers such that $f(0)=0, f(6)=12$, and
\[|x-y| \le |f(x)-f(y)| \le 3 |x-y| \]for all $x$ and $y$ in $\{0,1,2,3,4,5,6\}$.
This ends my involvement with the AMC series of problems for the 2018 season (I didn't submit anything for USA(J)MO contention this year). I hope you enjoyed what I had to offer! :)

I don't think anyone thought you made this; I thought you'd made one of the final geometry problems.

I find it pretty amazing that you got so many problems into this year's AMC/AIME circuit! I wonder if there is anyone who wrote a greater proportion of all the 2018 AMC/AIME problems.

Haha thanks :) I suspect there were others (e.g. the actual heads of the committees), but not too many.

Also, how do you submit these problem proposals to the MAA? I couldn't find any information about this on their website.

It's all through volunteer work; contact the MAA for more info I guess. I will say that it's probably kept opaque for a reason :P ~dj

Thanks for the problem, it boosted by score from n=horrible to n+1=still horrible with an hour-long bash :P
When you get #13, 15 but silly #4 :wallbash:

  • Do you have a link to your main blog that you started after graduating from high school, I couldn't find it. @dj I met you IRL at Awesome Math summer Program several years ago.
