#problem()

There are names of some countries in South America, written in the Georgian language, together
|
||||||
|
with their translations to English:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Brasil: ბრაზილია
|
||||||
|
- Uruguay: ურუგვაი
|
||||||
|
- Peru: პერუ
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
What are the names, in English, of the following untranslated countries?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- არგენტინა
|
||||||
|
- კოლუმბია
|
||||||

#solution[
|
||||||
|
- არგენტინა: Argentina
|
||||||
|
- კოლუმბია: Columbia
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#v(4mm)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that "Peru" and "Uruguay" in Georgian have the same amount of characters as their translations.
|
||||||
|
The repetition of U in Uruguay assures us that Georgian is written left-to-right.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Brazil" has more letters than the version in English but thanks to the two other names, we already know some letters:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#align(
|
||||||
|
center,
|
||||||
|
`_ R A _ I _ I A`,
|
||||||
|
)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#v(4mm)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This should probably be “Brasilia” or “Brazilia”. \
|
||||||
|
With those letters, we can guess the names of the other two countries:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#v(4mm)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#align(
|
||||||
|
center,
|
||||||
|
`A R G E _ _ I _ A`,
|
||||||
|
)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#align(
|
||||||
|
center,
|
||||||
|
`_ _ L U _ B I A`,
|
||||||
|
)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#v(4mm)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
which can only be Argentina and Colombia (Columbia).

#problem()
|
||||||
|
$n$ black and $n$ white points are randomly distributed on a plane. No three points are collinear.\
|
||||||
|
Show that it is always possible to draw $n$ nonintersecting lines between pairs of points of different colors.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#solution([
|
||||||
|
Consider the total length of all lines on the plane.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#v(2mm)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If we replace a pair of intersecting lines with two nonintersecting lines, \
|
||||||
|
we strictly decrease this total length (by the triangle inequality).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#v(2mm)
|
||||||
|
Thus, the arrangement of lines with the minimum total length must not have any intersections. \
|
||||||
|
Showing that a minimum exists is fairly easy.
