Question 15
While waiting for their food at a restaurant in Harvard Square, Ana and Banana draw 3 squares $\square_{1}, \square_{2}, \square_{3}$ on one of their napkins. Starting with Ana, they take turns filling in the squares with integers from the set $\{1,2,3,4,5\}$ such that no integer is used more than once. Ana's goal is to minimize the minimum value $M$ that the polynomial $a_{1} x^{2}+a_{2} x+a_{3}$ attains over all real $x$, where $a_{1}, a_{2}, a_{3}$ are the integers written in $\square_{1}, \square_{2}, \square_{3}$ respectively. Banana aims to maximize $M$. Assuming both play optimally, compute the final value of $100 a_{1}+10 a_{2}+a_{3}$.
