Using the theorem of mathematical induction, show that an = n n+1 for all n ∈ Z +. 2. Draw the graphs of the functions y = x 2 and y = 1 2 |x + 1| on the same diagram. Hence or otherwise, find all real values of x that satisfy the inequality x 2 < 1 2 |x + 1| . Derive all real values of x that satisfy the inequality x 2 < 1 2 (|x| + 1).
