Use the Mean value theorem to prove that,
for any real number r > 1 and x > -1
1 + rx ≤ (1+x)
Also, show that the equality holds only if x =
O.
Hint:
Apply the Mean Value Theorem to the
function f(x) = (1 + x)², with r > 1, on the
interval [0,x], x > Oand on the interval [x,0], x >
-1 to show that 1+rx ≤ (1+x). To prove that the
equality holds only if x = 0, show that when 1
+ rx = (1 + x)r, the statement of the mean
value theorem implies (1 + c)r-¹x = x, which
forces x = 0. Explain why it forces x
=
O.
