The only requirements are that the difference between the numbers of tenors and basses must be a multiple of 4,and the group must have at least one singer.Let be the number of groups that could be selected. What is the remainder when N is divided by 100?(A)47 (B)48 (C)83 (D)95 (E)96Solution. Suppose we mark down(1) the tenors that are in the group,and(2)the basses that aren't in the group. Then we necessarily mark down a number of people that is a multiple of 4. This is also sufficient; we mark down some people numbering a multiple of 4, then select the marked tenors and unmarked basses to form our choir. Clearly, we just mark down at least one person. The answer is thus(D)95Problem 16.In the following list of numbers, the integer n appears times in the list for l≤n≤200.1,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,.…,200,200,...200.What is the median of the numbers in this list?(A)100.5 (B)134 (C)142 (D)150.5 (E)167Solution.For general n, we have numbers. We want to approximate a such that is close to . Since the formula is a quadratic in n and we are halving this value,we can find that a is approximately .Plugging in n = 200,this is about 100√2,or 141.Of the answer choices, (C)142 is the closest, and indeed it is our answer.To verify, we can see that and ), so clearly 142 works.Problem 17.Trapezoid ABCD has ABICD,BC=CD=43,and AD1BD.Let O be the intersection of the diagonals AC and BD,and let P be the midpoint of BD.Given that OP=11, the length AD can be written in the form myn,where m and n are positive integers and n is not divisible by the square of any prime. What is m+n?(A)65 (B)132 (C)157 (D)194 (E)215Solution. Let M be the intersection of CPand AB.Since DCBMisakite,andCMIBD,we have MP1PB,and by considering the homothethy taking △MBD to △ABD with scale factor 2,we can see that M is the midpoint of AB.In particular,we haveSince AD 1BD,we have AD1DOandthusZADO=90°,andasCD=CB,wehaveCP1BD and ZCPD=2CPO=90°.Also,ZAOD=ZCOP,so △AOD~ △COP.Therefore,so DO=22.Thus,AD=√AB²-BD²=√86²-66²=4√ 190→m+n= (D)194The desired answer isProblem 18.Let f be afunction defined on the set of positive rational numbers with the property that f(a ·b)=f(a)+f(b)for all positive rational numbersa and b.Suppose that falso has the property that f(p)= pfor every prime numberp.For which of the following numbers zis f(x)<0?(A)整(B) (C) (D) (E) 51Solution.

Note on the interval , the left-hand side is negative while the right-hand side is positive.We thus restrict our attention to ]. The arguments cosx and sz are both between 0 and .ForsinA=cosBinA,B ∈[0,],we must have . This implies sinz+cosz=1,hence . There are (C) 2 solutions.Problem 20.Suppose that on a parabola with vertexV and focus F there exists a point Asuch that AF=20 and AV=21.What is the sum of all possible values of the length FV?(A)13 (B) 40 (C) (D)14 (E)Solution. Let the directrix be the x-axis,F=(0,2d),V=(0,d),A=(x,y),andB=(0,y)for some d>0.By the definition of a parabola,y=20.We compute x in two ways:x²=AF²-BF²=20²-|20-2d|2=AV²-BV²=21²-|20-d²Subtracting,O=20²-21²+(20-d)²-(20-2d)2=3d²-40d+41.The sum of all possible values ofProblem 21.The five solutions to the equation(z- 1)(z²+2z+4)(z²+4z+6)=0may be written in theformzk+ykiforl≤k≤5,where xk and yk are real.Let E be the unique ellipse that passes through the points(Ti,yi),(x2,32),(r3,Y3),(x4,y4)and(xs,ys).The eccentricity ofE can be written in the form ,where m and n are relatively prime positive integers. What is m+n?(Recall that the eccentrictiy of an ellipse E is the ratio,where 2a is the length of the major axis ofE and 2c is the distance between its two foci.)(A)7 (B)9 (C)11 (D)13 (E)15Solution. The roots of the polynomial arez=1,z=- 1±i√3,andz=-2±i√2,hence the five points onE are(1,0),( - 1,土√3),( - 2,±√2) .By symmetry through the x-axis, the ellipse is of the formE: a(x-r)²+by²=1.We then have the relationsa(1-r)²=1a(1+r)²+3b=1a(2+r)²+2b=1.Eliminating b from the latter two,1=3[a(2+r)²+2]-2[a(1+r)²+36]=a(r²+8r+10),henceit follows that and so the eccentricity is 1/√6. The requested sum is1+6= (A)7Problem 22.Suppose that the roots of the polynomialP(x)=x³+ax²+bx+care cos 2π,COS 47 and cos ,where angles are in radians. What is abc?(C) (D) (E)Solution. Recall1+e2m/7+ …+e12mi/7=0→e2mi/7+e4xi/7+e6mi/7=- 1/2,and in particular caNote are solutions to the equation cosb+cos28+cos30=- 1/2,so lettingx=co sθimplies thathas roots ,COS 4π7Thus, the polynomial in question is and the requested answer isRemark. Perhaps it is easier to motivate the solution as follows.Lett=e2mi/7andx=t+t- 1= 2cos2π/7.Thenx²-2=t²+t-2andx³-3x=t³+t-3.Moreover,t⁶+t⁵+ …+1=0impliest³+t²+t+t- 1+t-2+t-3=- 1,i.e.x+(x²-2)+(r³-3r) has root 2cos2π/7.It certainly seems logical that the Galois conjugates of 2cos would be 2cos and 2cos (especially given the phrasing of the problem),so simply replacex → to get the desired polynomial form.Let w = e2ix/7.Note thatLet these be r,s,t respectively. By Vieta's formulas, note that the desired quantity is(-rst)(rs+st+tr)(-r-s-t)=(r+s+t)(rs+st+tr)(rst).Note that 1+w+ …+w⁶=0.We haveThen,FinallyMultiplying yields the answer of (D)1 32Solution Manual 2021AMC12AProblem 23.Frieda the frog begins a sequence of hops on a 3×3 grid of squares,moving one square on each hop and choosing at random the direction of each hop up,down, left,or right. She does not hop diagonally. When the direction of a hop would take Frieda off the grid,she ”wraps around”and jumps to the opposite edge.For example if Frieda begins in the center square and makes two hops ”up”,the first hop would place her in the top row middle square, and the second hop would cause Frieda to jump to the opposite edge,landing in the bottom row middle square.Suppose Frieda starts from the center square, makes at most four hops at random,and stops hopping if she lands on a corner square. What is the probability that she reaches a corner square on one of the four hops?(A)G (B) (D)强(E)8Solution. We complementary count,and determine the probability we never reach a corner square. Denote by A the center,and B a square adjacent to the center. Then the first hop lands on B.● If the second hop lands on A(with probability ,then the third hop lands on B always,andthere is a chance the fourth hop lands on a non-corner square. The probability in this case is● If the second hop lands on B, then there is a chance the third hop lands on A,and achance the third hop lands on B.In the former subcase, the fourth hop always lands on a non-corner square, and in the latter subcase, there is a chance the fourth hop lands on a non-corner square. The probability in this case isThe requested probability isProblem 24.SemicircleT has diameter AB of length14.Circle Ωlies tangent to AB at a point P and intersectsI at pointsQandR.IfQR=3√3and ZQPR=60°,then the area of △PQR is ,where a and c are relatively prime positive integers, and b is a positive integer not divisible by the square of any prime. What isa+b+c?(A)110 (B)114 (C)118 (D)122 (E)126Solution. First, by Extended Law of Sines,we have that the radius of Q is .Let M be the midpoint of QR,O be the center ofT,and X be the center of 2.Since △OQR is isosceles, OM is perpendicular to QR. Thus we have that X lies on OM since it is the circumcenter of △puting lengths, we hav thagorean theorem on △ORM andfrom isosceles triangle XQR. Thus and OP=4 from Pythagorean theorem on △OXP.To find [PQR],we will find the height from P to QR.Let the foot of the perpendicular fromX to the P-altitude be D. Since PDⅡOM,we know that △XDP~△OPX.This means that . Now note that the bottom portion of the P-altitude after subtractingPD is equal to XM,so the height of the triangle is .

美国高中数学测验 AMC12之机率问题(下)

美国高中数学测验 AMC12之机率问题(下)洪伟诚 . 李俊贤 . 蔡诚祐 . 何家兴 . 张福春关键词:高中数学几何机率前述两节的问题皆建立在样本点个数为可数时的情况,接下来将介绍一不可数的无穷样本空间S且利用此空间的一些几何测量m(S),例如长度、面积、或者体积,来求A事件的机率。

而A事件的机率可用A事件之几何测量与样本空间S之几何测量的比例来计算,其形式有下列三种:P(A)=A的长度S的长度或P(A)=A的面积S的面积或P(A)=A的体积S的体积注:我们必须假设一不可数无穷样本空间S满足均匀性质,这样才能做以上的几何机率。

几何测量—长度所谓长度的几何测量,表示其无穷样本空间可用一线段、数线或是时间轴⋯等表示,则考虑某事件的机率时,只需探讨此事件所占的线段(或数线)与样本空间相对的长度比值即可,下列为利用长度测量来求的机率问题。

例1.(1972 AMC12 #17) 随机将一条线切为两段,试问较长的一段至少是较短的一段的x倍(其中x¸1)的机率为多少?•(B)2x•(C)1x+1•(D)1x•(E)2x+1解:(E)假设线段AB被切为两段,若较长一段(标记为l1,长度为sx)为较短一段(标记为l2,长度为s)的x倍,则线段AB总长度为(x+1)s,因此切点会落于l2中的机率为\dfrac{1}{x+1}。

但因线段的切法可能为(l1,l2)或是(l2,l21)两种情况,如下图故所求机率为2x+1。

例2.(2007 AMC12B #13)有一交通号志以下列的循环重复的运作:绿灯30秒,然后黄灯3秒,之后再转红灯30秒。

利亚随机挑选三秒钟的区间去注视号志灯,试问号志灯在转换颜色时,利亚正在注视的机率为多少?•(A)163•(B)121•(C)110•(D)17解:(D)由题意知,交通号志运作一循环需时63秒,而若利亚所注视的时间在当绿灯转变为黄灯、黄灯转变为红灯或红灯转变为绿灯的前三秒钟内,则利亚会看到号志颜色正在转变,如下图所示故所求机率为3+3+363=963=17例3.(2009 AMC12B #18) 瑞吉儿与罗伯特在一圆形的跑道上跑步,其中瑞吉儿以逆时钟方向跑且跑完一圈需时90秒,而罗伯特以顺时钟方向跑且跑完一圈需时80秒。
