1Let \(a\), \(b\), \(c\) be three distinct nonzero real numbers, and for real \(x, y \neq a\) set \[ V(x,y)=\frac{1}{(a-x)^{2}(a-y)^{2}}\Bigl((a-b)^{2}(c-x)(c-y)-(c-a)^{2}(b-x)(b-y)\Bigr). \] Prove that …Open2Let \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), \(d\), \(x\), \(y\) be positive real numbers such that \[ a + 2ay + y = b + 2bx + x \qquad \text{and} \qquad x + 2xd + d = y + 2yc + c . \] Prove that \[ a + 2ad + d = b + 2bc + c . \] …3Let \(x\) and \(y\) be nonnegative real numbers with \(x + y = 2\). Prove that \[ x^2 y^2 \left( x^2 + y^2 \right) \leq 2 . \] When does equality hold?4Prove that for all real numbers \(a\) and \(b\), \[ a(1 + b^2) + b(1 + a^2) \leq (1 + a^2)(1 + b^2) . \]
