Let \(a>b>0\) and \(f(n)=a^{1 / n}-b^{1 / n}\),\(J(n)=(a-b)^{1 / n}\) for all \(n \geq 2,\) Then

  1. A \(f(n) < J(n)\)
  2. B \(f(n)>J(n)\)
  3. C \(f(n)=J(n)\)
  4. D \(f(n)+J(n)=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(f(n) < J(n)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(a=4, b=1\) and \(n=2\) \(\begin{array}{l} \therefore \quad I(n)=a^{1 / n}-b^{1 / n} \\ =4^{1 / 2}-1^{1 / 2}=2-1=1 \\ \text { and } J(n)=(a-b)^{1 / n} \\ =(4-1)^{1 / 2}=\sqrt{3} \\ \therefore \quad J(n)>I(n) \end{array}\) Similarly, we can prove for other values of…
