Prove inequality: When n>2, n!<left(fracn+2sqrt6right)n



Prove: When n>2,

n!<(n+26)n



PS: please do not use mathematical induction method.



EDIT: sorry, I forget another constraint, this problem should be solved by
algebraic mean inequality.



Thanks.


Answer



This used to be one of my favourite high-school problems. This is one approach: consider y=lnx and say that you want to integrate it between 1 and n.

obviously the sum of the areas of trapezium <n1lnxdx. From this inequality, you get another inequality:
n!<(nn+12en1)
Then just show the following inequality and you are done:
(nn+12en1)<(n+26)n
