Question 18

Let $k$ and $n$ be integers with $0 \leq k \leq n-2$. Consider a set $L$ of $n$ lines in the plane such that no two of them are parallel and no three have a common point. Denote by $I$ the set of intersection points of lines in $L$. Let $O$ be a point in the plane not lying on any line of $L$.

A point $X \in I$ is colored red if the open line segment $O X$ intersects at most $k$ lines in $L$. Prove that $I$ contains at least $\frac{1}{2}(k+1)(k+2)$ red points.
