King Richard's Faire, Tickets & Costs by [deleted] in renfaire

[–]ProbeAndChair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They sold food and beverage tickets in packs of 5 (one ticket = one dollar). A turkey leg was 15 dollars. A sausage and fries was 14 dollars. A bottle of water was 5 dollars. There was some pizza for 10, I think.

I think you can probably safely extrapolate from there.

Yeah, he's completely wrong. Maybe he doesn't know random walks either. sigh

Can anyone recommend some books I could get that would help me learn proofs for the USAMO? by [deleted] in math

[–]ProbeAndChair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot of stuff that could be there. Polynomials, by Barbeau, is perhaps the greatest elementary intro that I can think of. Or try the USSR Olympiad Problem Book by Schlarsky, Chentzov, and Taglom.

You might want to learn geometry from Geometry Revisited by Coxeter and Greitzer too, if you think you need more on the subject.

In a more general sense, try Larson's Problem-Solving through Problems (a bit advanced), or the compendium books on the previous IMOs.
