Question

Với mọi số tự nhiên n \(\ge\)2 hãy so sánh: P = \(\dfrac{1}{2^2}+\dfrac{1}{3^2}+\dfrac{1}{4^2}+...+\dfrac{1}{n^2}\)với 1

Answer 1

Ta có:

\(\dfrac{1}{2^2}< \dfrac{1}{1.2}\)

\(\dfrac{1}{3^2}< \dfrac{1}{2.3}\)

\(\dfrac{1}{4^2}< \dfrac{1}{3.4}\)

...

\(\dfrac{1}{n^2}< \dfrac{1}{n\left(n-1\right)}\)

\(\Rightarrow P< \dfrac{1}{1.2}+\dfrac{1}{2.3}+\dfrac{1}{3.4}+...+\dfrac{1}{n\left(n-1\right)}\)

\(\Rightarrow P< 1-\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{4}+...+\dfrac{1}{n-1}-\dfrac{1}{n}\)

\(\Rightarrow P< 1-\dfrac{1}{n}< 1\)

\(\Rightarrow P< 1\)
