Question Number 1952 by prakash jain last updated on 25/Oct/15

Inequality relation starting a new thread  (x^p /(p(p+1)))−(1/p)≥(x^q /(q(q+1)))−(1/q)  p=2, q=1, x=1  (x^p /(p(p+1)))=(1/6)  (x^q /(q(q+1)))=(1/2)   (x^p /(p(p+1)))−(1/p) = (1/6)−(1/2)=−(1/3)   (x^p /(p(p+1))) = (1/2) − 1 = −(1/2)  A≥B and c>d ⇏A−c≥B−d  Since you are subtracting a larger quantity  c from A, so if (c−d)>(A−B) then A−c<B−d
