(a) Use induction to prove that for all x > 0 and all positive integers n x² + 2! e* > 1+x + + 3! n! Hint: Observe e = 1+ | e'dt > 1+ | 1dt > 1+x, and then [ e'dt > 1+ 72 | e'dt | (1+t)dt > 1+x + e = 1+ 2 (b) Use part(a) to show if n is a positive integer, then et > x" for all æ sufficiently large. Hint: this is equivalent to showing >1 for x sufficiently large.
