Prove:
(n)^(1/n) < 1 + sqrt(2/n) for all positive n.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Using induction, base case is easy enough to prove, however proving it holds for n+1 is where I am hitting a wall. So the problem is reduced to proving:
(n+1)^(1/(n+1)) < 1 + sqrt(2/(n+1)) for positive n.
