calculus - Show that for all lambdageq1  fraclambdanelambda<fracClambda2




Show that for any nN there exists Cn>0 such that for all λ1




λneλ<Cnλ2




I can see that both sides of the inequality have a limit of 0 as λ since, on the LHS, repeated application of L'Hôpital's rule will render the λn term as a constant eventually, while the eλ term will remain, and the RHS is obvious.



I can also see that the denominator of the LHS will become large faster than the RHS denominator, but I can't seem to think of anything that will show that the inequality is true for all the smaller intermediate values.


Answer



HINT: The inequality λneλ<Cλ2 is equivalent to the inequality $\lambda^{n+2}e^{-\lambda}
