Prove:

Sigma (n at top, r=1 at bottom) 1/r^2 <= 2 - 1/n for n>=1


This question is q8(a) from Chapter 6N (Proof by Mathematical Induction) in Cambridge Yr 11 3u Textbook.

Thanks !

CONCLUSION: (Depends on what you have been taught) My conclusion would be: As true for n = k, therefore true for n = k+1. As true for n = 1, the statement must therefore be true for n≥1.
