Hello again,

another problem: given: a function

[tex]f:[0,\infty)\rightarrow\mathbb{R},f\in C^2(\mathbb{R}^+,\mathbb{R})\\[/tex]

The Derivatives

[tex]f,f''\\[/tex]

are bounded.

It is to proof that

[tex]\rvert f'(x)\rvert\le\frac{2}{h}\rvert\rvert f\rvert\rvert_{\infty}+\frac{2}{h}\rvert\lvert f''\rvert\rvert_{\infty}\\[/tex]


[tex]\forall x\ge 0,h>0\\[/tex]

and:

[tex]\rvert\rvert f'\rvert\rvert_{\infty}\le 2(\rvert\rvert f\rvert\rvert_{\infty})^{\frac{1}{2}}(\rvert\rvert f''\rvert\rvert_{\infty})^{\frac{1}{2}}\\[/tex]

I began like this:

[tex]f'(x)=\int_{0}^{x}f''(x)dx\Rightarrow[/tex]

[tex]\rvert f'(x)\rvert\le\rvert\int_{0}^{x}f''(x)dx\rvert\le\int_{0}^{x}\rvert f''(x)\rvert dx[/tex]

But then already I don´t know how to go on
I´d be glad to get some hints!
Thanks
Jonas

EDIT: Would it make sense to apply the Tayler series here?
