Problem 221. (Due to Alfred Eckstein,
Arad, Romania) The Fibonacci
sequence is defined by F0 = 1, F1 = 1
and Fn = Fn1+Fn2 for n 2.
4 x 6 6 x 2 + 2 2 = 0.

Let t = 2x . We get
0 = t 3 6t + 4 2

x1 [ n 1 / 3 ], x 2 [ n 1 / 5 ], L , x 5 [ n 1 / 11 ].
So the number of integers in [1, n] of the

= n3043/3465. Those not of the form is at
least n n3043/3465, which goes to infinity
as n goes to infinity.

We prove the following generalization of
problem 203:
Let a1, a2, , an be real numbers, and let si
be the sum of the products of the ai taken i
at a time. If s1 0, then the equation
g(x) = (a1x+1)(a2x+1)(anx+1)
= snxn + sn1xn1 + + 1,
So g' (x) = nsnxn1+ (n1)sn1xn2 ++s1.
Since s1 0, 0 is not a root of g' (x) = 0.
Finally, we get that the polynomial
1
x n 1 g ( ) = s1 x n 1 + 2 s2 x n 1 + L + ns n
x
has all real roots.
s1 x n 1 + 2 s 2 x n 2 + L + ns n = 0
has only real roots.

Proof. Let
f ( x ) = s1 x n 1 + 2 s 2 x n 2 + L + ns n .
We can assume that none of the ai are equal
to 0, for if some of the ai are equal to 0, then
rearrange them so that a1, a2, , ak are
nonzero and ak+1, ak+2, , an are 0. Then
sk+1 = sk+2 = = sn = 0, so
f ( x ) = s1 x
