\(A-B=\dfrac{1999^{1999}+1}{1999^{1998}+1}-\dfrac{1999^{2000}+1}{1999^{1999}+1}\)
\(=\dfrac{\left(1999^{1999}+1\right)^2-\left(1999^{1998}+1\right)\left(1999^{2000}+1\right)}{\left(1999^{1998}+1\right)\left(1999^{1999}+1\right)}\)
\(=\dfrac{1999^{3998}+2\cdot1999^{1999}+1-\left(1999^{3998}+1999^{1998}+1999^{2000}+1\right)}{1999^{3997}+1999^{1998}+1999^{1999}+1}\)
\(=\dfrac{2\cdot1999^{1999}-1999^{1998}-1999^{2000}}{1999^{3997}+1999^{1998}+1999^{1999}+1}\)
Mà \(2\cdot1999^{1999}-1999^{1998}-1999^{2000}=-\left[\left(1999^{999}\right)^2-2\cdot1999^{999}\cdot1999^{1000}+\left(1999^{1000}\right)^2\right]\)
\(=-\left(1999^{999}-1999^{1000}\right)^2< 0\)
Mà mẫu số > 0
\(\Rightarrow A-B< 0\Leftrightarrow A< B\)
A=\(\dfrac{1999^{1999}+1999-1998}{1999^{1998}+1}\) B=\(\dfrac{1999^{2000}+1999-1998}{1999^{1999}+1}\)
A=1999-\(\dfrac{1998}{1999^{1998}+1}\) B=1999-\(\dfrac{1998}{1999^{1999}+1}\)
Vì 19991998+1<19991999+1 nên
\(\dfrac{1}{1999^{1998}+1}\)>\(\dfrac{1}{1999^{1999}+1}\) nên \(\dfrac{-1}{1999^{1998}+1}< \dfrac{-1}{1999^{1999}+1}\)
A=1999+\(\dfrac{-1}{1999^{1998}+1}< 1999+\dfrac{-1}{1999^{1999}+1}\)=B
A<B
