ILL 1986 Problem 45

    Given nn real numbers a1≤a2≤⋯≤ana_1 \leq a_2 \leq \cdots \leq a_n , define M1=1n∑i=1nai,M2=2n(n−1)∑1≤i<j≤naiaj,Q=M12−M2M_1=\frac 1n \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_i , M_2=\frac{2}{n(n-1)} \sum_{1 \leq i<j \leq n} a_ia_j, Q=\sqrt{M_1^2-M_2} Prove that a1≤M1−Q≤M1+Q≤ana_1 \leq M_1 - Q \leq M_1 + Q \leq a_n and that equality holds if and only if a1=a2=⋯=an.a_1 = a_2 = \cdots = a_n.
