[hide]Introduction
SINCE MY COMPUTER WON'T LOAD THIS FOR SOME REASON, I'LL BE UPDATING THIS AS I GO THOUGH :)
Ok, so inspired by master math solver Lcz, I have decided to take Oly notes (for me) online! I'll probably be yelled at even more for staring at the computer, but I know that this is for my good. (Also this thing is almost the exact same format as Lcz's :P ). (Ok, actually, a LOT of credits to Lcz)
Algebra
Problems worth noting/reviewing
I'll leave this empty for now, I want to start on HARD stuff yeah!
Inequalities
We shall begin with INEQUALITIES! They should be fun enough. I should probably begin with some theorems.
Power mean (special case)
Statement: Given that 
, 
where 
. Define the 
as: ![\[(\frac{a_1^x+a_2^x+\cdots+a_n^x}{n})^{\frac{1}{x}},\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/e/b/c/ebc47ff3b8f1015a599578cca800e555507e382c.png)
where 
, and: ![\[\sqrt[n]{a_{1}a_{2}a_{3} \cdots a_{n}}.\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/a/2/d/a2dd19fdaf0686ffca569aceaf5f1ec2f02916f3.png)
where 
.
If 
, then ![\[pm_x(a_1, a_2, \cdots , a_n) \ge pm_y(a_1, a_2, \cdots , a_n).\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/7/a/5/7a51f71d68c4e95c1e85575a6681d32c8ad46da0.png)
Power mean (weighted)
Statement: Let 
be positive real numbers. Let 
be positive real numbers ("weights") such that 
. For any 
,
if 
,
![\[P(r)=a_1^{w_1} a_2^{w_2} a_3^{w_3} . . . a_n^{w_n}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/3/f/a/3fa5df45a1c9d7fef72606902a8ecdf595724e16.png)
.
if 
,
![\[P(r)=(w_1a_1^r+w_2a_2^r+w_3a_3^r . . . +w_na_n^r)^{\frac{1}{r}}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/d/d/7/dd7877cd24ec9e5b0c3ddf4e3e2e4a7682b45611.png)
.
If 
, then 
. Equality occurs if and only if all the 
are equal.
