Let $ABCDE$ be a convex pentagon with $AB=14,$ $BC=7,$ $CD=24,$ $DE=13,$ $EA=26,$ and $\angle B=\angle E=60^{\circ}.$ For each point $X$ in the plane, define $f(X)=AX+BX+CX+DX+EX.$ The least possible value of $f(X)$ can be expressed as $m+n\sqrt{p},$ where $m$ and $n$ are positive integers and $p$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $m+n+p.$

Let $\mathbb{N}$ be the set of positive integers. A function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$ satisfies the equation \[\underbrace{f(f(\ldots f}_{f(n)\text{ times}}(n)\ldots))=\frac{n^2}{f(f(n))}\]for all positive integers $n$. Given this information, determine all possible values of $f(1000)$.

How to get better at AMC 10
Dream9   6
N Today at 1:31 AM by sadas123
I'm nearly in high school now but only average like 75 on AMC 10 sadly. I want to get better so I'm doing like the first 11 questions of previous AMC 10's almost every day because I also did previous years for AMC 8. Is there any specific way to get better scores and understand more difficult problems past AMC 8? I have almost no trouble with AMC 8 problem given enough time (like 23-24 right with enough time).

You're not improving as much as you want to because you're just doing the first 11, try 12-25

You want to do better on mocks
Time yourself
U generally want to focus on first 15 questions, but doesn't necessarily have to be first 15
try to get 15 right leave rest blank
that gives 105
then if u have like 5-7 min left try to solve one or 2 more to reach a chance at distinction

yes, doing first 11 amc 10 problems is a good start, but you should also challenge yourself to do the problems 12-17 without time pressure.
