Question

Chứng minh rằng: \(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{4\sqrt{3}}+...+\frac{1}{\left(n+1\right)\sqrt{n}}< 2\)

Answer 1

Ta có : \(\frac{1}{\left(k+1\right)\sqrt{k}}=\frac{\sqrt{k}}{k\left(k+1\right)}=\sqrt{k}\left(\frac{1}{k\left(k+1\right)}\right)=\sqrt{k}\left(\frac{1}{k}-\frac{1}{k+1}\right)=\sqrt{k}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{k+1}}\right)\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{k+}}\right)\)

\(=\left(1+\frac{\sqrt{k}}{\sqrt{k+1}}\right)\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{k+1}}\right)< 2\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{k+1}}\right)\)

Áp dụng : \(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3\sqrt{2}}+...+\frac{1}{\left(n+1\right)\sqrt{n}}< 2\left(\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}+...+\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{n+1}}\right)=2\left(1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{n+1}}\right)=2-\frac{2}{\sqrt{n+}}< 2\)

Vậy ta có điều phải chứng minh.
