We call a permutation of the set of real numbers $\{a_1,\cdots,a_n\}$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$ [i]average increasing[/i] if the arithmetic mean of its first $k$ elements for $k=1,\cdots ,n$ form a strictly increasing sequence. 1) Depending on $n$, determine the smallest number that can be the last term of some average increasing permutation of the numbers $\{1,\cdots,n\}$; 2) Depending on $n$, determine the lowest position (in some general order) that the number $n$ can be achieved in some average increasing permutation of the numbers $\{1,\cdots,n\}.$ [i] Proposed by David Hruska, Czech Republic[/i]

Two courier companies offer services in the country of Old Aland. For any two towns, at least one of the companies offers a direct link in both directions between them. Additionally, each company is willing to chain together deliveries (so if they offer a direct link from $A$ to $B$, and $B$ to $C$, and $C$ to $D$ for instance, they will deliver from $A$ to $D$.) Show that at least one of the two companies must be able to deliver packages between any two towns in Old Aland.
