Proving an inequality involving exponentiation
Homework Statement Show that \left( 1 - \frac{\ln n}{kn} \right)^n > \frac{1}{n^{1/k} + 1} holds for all integers n\geq 1 and k\geq 2. The Attempt at a Solution I first tried to find a proof for k=2 by showing that the quotient LHS/RHS goes to 1 and has negative slope everywhere, but...- hypatia0
