CMO 1988 Problem 3

  • Day 1

Given a finite sequence of real numbers a1,a2,…,ana_1,a_2,\dots ,a_n ( ∗\ast ), we call a segment ak,…,ak+l−1a_k,\dots ,a_{k+l-1} of the sequence ( ∗\ast ) a "long"(Chinese dragon) and aka_k "head" of the "long" if the arithmetic mean of ak,…,ak+l−1a_k,\dots ,a_{k+l-1} is greater than 19881988 . (especially if a single item am>1988a_m>1988 , we still regard ama_m as a "long"). Suppose that there is at least one "long" among the sequence ( ∗\ast ), show that the arithmetic mean of all those items of sequence ( ∗\ast ) that could be "head" of a certain "long" individually is greater than 19881988 .
