i need to prove that for every delta
i call d=delta
e=epsilon
1/|x+1|>e
we can choosr any e we want
so they took e=1/4
but because the innqualitty needs to work for every delta
they took x=min{2,(1+d)/2}
for d>2 it takes x= 1+d /2
for d<2 takes x=2
uppon what logic they found this formula x=min{2,(1+d)/2}

I don't understand the question. You say "for every delta", but then the equation that follows doesn't have a delta in it.
