Source: Use your common sense! (enough is enough)
Some users don't want to learn, some other simply ignore advises.
But please follow the following guideline:


To make it short: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!
If you don't have common sense, don't post.


More specifically:

For new threads:


a) Good, meaningful title:
The title has to say what the problem is about in best way possible.
If that title occured already, it's definitely bad. And contest names aren't good either.
That's in fact a requirement for being able to search old problems.

Examples:
Bad titles:
- "Hard"/"Medium"/"Easy" (if you find it so cool how hard/easy it is, tell it in the post and use a title that tells us the problem)
- "Number Theory" (hey guy, guess why this forum's named that way¿ and is it the only such problem on earth¿)
- "Fibonacci" (there are millions of Fibonacci problems out there, all posted and named the same...)
- "Chinese TST 2003" (does this say anything about the problem¿)
Good titles:
- "On divisors of a³+2b³+4c³-6abc"
- "Number of solutions to x²+y²=6z²"
- "Fibonacci numbers are never squares"


b) Use search function:
Before posting a "new" problem spend at least two, better five, minutes to look if this problem was posted before. If it was, don't repost it. If you have anything important to say on topic, post it in one of the older threads.
If the thread is locked cause of this, use search function.

Update (by Amir Hossein). The best way to search for two keywords in AoPS is to input
[code]+"first keyword" +"second keyword"[/code]
so that any post containing both strings "first word" and "second form".


c) Good problem statement:
Some recent really bad post was:
[quote]$lim_{n\to 1}^{+\infty}\frac{1}{n}-lnn$[/quote]
It contains no question and no answer.
If you do this, too, you are on the best way to get your thread deleted. Write everything clearly, define where your variables come from (and define the "natural" numbers if used). Additionally read your post at least twice before submitting. After you sent it, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.


For answers to already existing threads:


d) Of any interest and with content:
Don't post things that are more trivial than completely obvious. For example, if the question is to solve $x^{3}+y^{3}=z^{3}$, do not answer with "$x=y=z=0$ is a solution" only. Either you post any kind of proof or at least something unexpected (like "$x=1337, y=481, z=42$ is the smallest solution). Someone that does not see that $x=y=z=0$ is a solution of the above without your post is completely wrong here, this is an IMO-level forum.
Similar, posting "I have solved this problem" but not posting anything else is not welcome; it even looks that you just want to show off what a genius you are.

e) Well written and checked answers:
Like c) for new threads, check your solutions at least twice for mistakes. And after sending, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.



To repeat it: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!


Everything definitely out of range of common sense will be locked or deleted (exept for new users having less than about 42 posts, they are newbies and need/get some time to learn).

The above rules will be applied from next monday (5. march of 2007).
Feel free to discuss on this here.

1. How many ways can you arrange the letters in the word ALGEBRA such that no two identical letters are adjacent?

2. Find the smallest positive integer n such that $n^2+n+41$ is not a prime number.

3. You have 4 red tiles, 3 blue tiles, and 2 green tiles. How many ways can you arrange them in a row such that no two tiles of the same color are adjacent?

4. You flip a fair coin repeatedly until you either get 3 tails or 4 heads. What is the expected number of flips before stopping?

5. Let $A(2,3)$ and $B(8,7)$ be two points in the coordinate plane. A circle is drawn such that $\overline{AB}$ is a diameter.

(a). Find the equation of the circle in the form $(x+a)^2+(y+b)^2=r^2$

(b). A line passes through the point P(6,2) and is tangent to the circle. Find the equation of this tangent line.

hopefully these problems weren't too easy lol

also,
Please tell me if any of these problems have any flaws! (also please put your answers in hide tags or quote tags)

Fun challange problem :)

N 2 hours ago by Pengu14
Scenario:

Master Alchemist Aurelius is renowned for his mastery of elemental fusion. He works with seven fundamental, yet mysterious, elements: Ignis (Fire), Aqua (Water), Terra (Earth), Aer (Air), Lux (Light), Umbra (Shadow), and Aether (Spirit). Each element possesses a unique 'potency' value, a positive integer crucial for his most complex fusions

Aurelius has lost his master log of these potencies. All he has left are seven cryptic scrolls, each containing a precise relationship between the potencies of various elements. He needs these values to complete his Grand Device. Can you help him deduce the exact potency of each element?

The Elements and Their Potencies:

Let I represent the potency of Ignis (Fire).
Let A represent the potency of Aqua (Water).
Let T represent the potency of Terra (Earth).
Let R represent the potency of Aer (Air).
Let L represent the potency of Lux (Light).
Let U represent the potency of Umbra (Shadow).
Let E represent the potency of Aether (Spirit).
The Cryptic Scrolls (System of Equations):

Aurelius's scrolls reveal the following relationships:

The combined potency of Ignis, Aqua, and Terra is equal to the potency of Aer plus Lux, plus a constant of two.

If you sum the potencies of Aqua and Umbra, it precisely equals the sum of Lux and Aether, minus one.

The sum of Terra and Aer potencies is the same as the sum of Ignis, Aqua, and Aether potencies, minus one.

Three times the potency of Ignis, plus the potency of Aer, is equal to the sum of Aqua, Terra, and Aether potencies, plus five.

The difference between Lux and Ignis potencies is identical to the difference between Umbra and Aqua potencies.

The sum of Umbra and Aether potencies, when decreased by the potency of Terra, results in twice the potency of Aqua.

The potency of Ignis added to Lux, minus the potency of Aer, is equivalent to the potency of Aether minus Umbra, plus one.

The Grand Challenge:

Using only the information from the cryptic scrolls, set up and solve the system of seven linear equations to determine the unique positive integer potency value for each of the seven elements: I,A,T,R,L,U,E.

good luck, and whoever finds the potencies first, gets a title of The SYSTEMS OF EQUATIONS MASTER

p.s. Yes, I did just come up with a whole story of words to make a ridiculously long problem, but hey, you're reading this, so you probably have nothing better to be doing. ;)

Difficult combinatorics problem

Can someone help me with this problem? Let $n\in \mathbb N^*$. We call a distribution the act of distributing the integers from $1$
to $n^2$ represented by tokens to players $A_1$ to $A_n$ so that they all have the same number of tokens in their urns.
We say that $A_i$ beats $A_j$ when, when $A_i$ and $A_j$ each draw a token from their urn, $A_i$ has a strictly greater chance of drawing a larger number than $A_j$. We then denote $A_i>A_j$. A distribution is said to be chicken-fox-viper when $A_1>A_2>\ldots>A_n>A_1$ What is $R(n)$

If he gets $x$ heads and $y$ tails, his score will be: $2x - y$. We also know $x + y = 5$. Let's list out possible values of $x$ and $y$ and see which pairs give $2x - y$ to be a perfect square(we will be using complementary counting). If $x = 0, y = 5$, this is impossible. If $x = 1, y = 4$, this is also impossible. If $x = 2, y = 3$, this will give us that $2x - y = 1$, which is a perfect square. If $x = 3, y = 2$, this will give us that $2x - y = 4$, which is a perfect square. If $x = 4, y = 1$, this is impossible. If $x = 5, y = 0$, this is impossible. So, Mike will only get a perfect square if he gets either $2$ heads and $3$ tails or $3$ heads and $2$ tails. If Mike gets $2$ heads and $3$ tails, there are $10$ possible ways to do this($5$ factorial ways to arrange the $5$ flips, then divide by the $2$ factorial ways to arrange the heads and the $3$ factorial ways to arrange the tails). Similarly, there are $10$ possible ways to do the second case. So we can have a total of $10 + 10 = 20$ total possible occurrences for which Mike WILL get a perfect square. The probability is simply $\frac{20}{2^{5}} = \frac{20}{32} = \frac{5}{8}$. Taking the complementary of this, we get our final probability of $\boxed{\frac{3}{8}}$.
