Question Number 78351 by loveineq. last updated on 16/Jan/20

Let a,b,c ∈ R^+ and (a+b)(b+c) = 1 , where 0 <b≤ 1 . Prove that ∣a−b∣∣b−c∣ ≥ ((∣(√a)−(√b)∣∣(√b)−(√c)∣)/2) .

$$\mathrm{Let}\:\:{a},{b},{c}\:\in\:\mathrm{R}^{+} \:\:\mathrm{and}\:\:\left({a}+{b}\right)\left({b}+{c}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{1}\:,\:\mathrm{where}\:\:\mathrm{0}\:<{b}\leqslant\:\mathrm{1}\:. \\ $$ $$\mathrm{Prove}\:\mathrm{that}\:\:\mid{a}−{b}\mid\mid{b}−{c}\mid\:\geqslant\:\frac{\mid\sqrt{{a}}−\sqrt{{b}}\mid\mid\sqrt{{b}}−\sqrt{{c}}\mid}{\mathrm{2}}\:. \\ $$

More stronger is ∣a−b∣∣b−c∣ ≥ ∣(√a)−(√b)∣∣(√b)−(√c)∣ .

$$\mathrm{More}\:\mathrm{stronger}\:\mathrm{is}\:\:\mid{a}−{b}\mid\mid{b}−{c}\mid\:\geqslant\:\mid\sqrt{{a}}−\sqrt{{b}}\mid\mid\sqrt{{b}}−\sqrt{{c}}\mid\:. \\ $$

x−y=((√x)−(√y))((√x)+(√y)) ⇒∣a−b∣∣b−c∣=∣(√a)−(√b)∣∣(√b)−(√c)∣((√a)+(√b))((√b)+(√c)) (√x)+(√y) ≥((√(x+y))/(√2)) proof⇔2(x+y+2(√(xy)))≥x+y ⇔x+y+4(√(xy))≥0 True ((√a)+(√b))((√b)+(√c))≥(((√(a+b)).(√(b+c)))/2)=((√((a+b)(b+c)))/2)=(1/2) ⇒∣(√a)−(√b)∣∣(√b)−(√c)∣((√a)+(√b))((√b)+(√c))≥((∣(√a)−(√(b∣))∣(√b)−(√c)∣)/2)

$$\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{y}=\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{x}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{y}}\right)\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{x}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{y}}\right) \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow\mid\mathrm{a}−\mathrm{b}\mid\mid\mathrm{b}−\mathrm{c}\mid=\mid\sqrt{\mathrm{a}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}\mid\mid\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{c}}\mid\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{a}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}\right)\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{c}}\right) \\ $$ $$\sqrt{\mathrm{x}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{y}}\:\:\geqslant\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}\:\:\mathrm{proof}\Leftrightarrow\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}+\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{xy}}\right)\geqslant\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y} \\ $$ $$\Leftrightarrow\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}+\mathrm{4}\sqrt{\mathrm{xy}}\geqslant\mathrm{0}\:\mathrm{True} \\ $$ $$\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{a}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}\right)\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{c}}\right)\geqslant\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}}.\sqrt{\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{\left(\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}\right)\left(\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}\right)}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow\mid\sqrt{\mathrm{a}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}\mid\mid\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{c}}\mid\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{a}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}\right)\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{c}}\right)\geqslant\frac{\mid\sqrt{\mathrm{a}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{b}\mid}\mid\sqrt{\mathrm{b}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{c}}\mid}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$
