APMO 1990 Problem 2

  • Paper

Let a1,a2,…,ana_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{n} be positive real numbers, and let SkS_{k} be the sum of products of a1,a2,…,ana_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{n} taken kk at a time. Show that

SkSn−k≥(nk)2a1a2…an, for k=1,2,…,n−1S_{k} S_{n-k} \geq\binom{ n}{k}^{2} a_{1} a_{2} \ldots a_{n}, \text { for } k=1,2, \ldots, n-1
