Let $x_1$, $x_2$, ..., $x_n$ be real numbers with arithmetic mean $X$. Prove that there is a positive integer $K$ such that for any integer $i$ satisfying $0\leq i<K$, we have $\frac{1}{K-i}\sum_{j=i+1}^{K} x_j \leq X$.

Let $n > 2$ be an integer and let $\ell \in \{1, 2,\dots, n\}$. A collection $A_1,\dots,A_k$ of (not necessarily distinct) subsets of $\{1, 2,\dots, n\}$ is called $\ell$-large if $|A_i| \ge \ell$ for all $1 \le i \le k$. Find, in terms of $n$ and $\ell$, the largest real number $c$ such that the inequality
