  • Paper 1

Let f(x)=xn+an−1xn−1+...+a0f(x)=x^n+a_{n-1} x^{n-1}+...+a_0 (n≥1)(n \ge 1) be a polynomial with real coefficients such that ∣f(0)∣=f(1)|f(0)|=f(1) and each root α\alpha of ff is real and lies in the interval [0,1][0,1] . Prove that the product of the roots does not exceed 12n\frac{1}{2^n} .
