Prove $2^{(h(x)-5)}+3x$ is not equal to $sin(x)$












1












$begingroup$


I am working on my CalcII class and have been doing reasonably well so far. I'm now stuck with this exercises:
Given $$ h(x): mathbb R+0 rightarrow mathbb R , h(x+Delta x) > h(x) , forall x in D$$
Prove that:



$$2 ^ {h(x)-5} + 3x neq sin(x) ,forall xgeq 0 $$



I am really at a loss here: I hate to say this, but I cannot see where to start here. I can see $h(x)$ is strictly increasing; however, I fail to see how this could help me to prove the inequality.



I'll be very grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction so I can work it out.



Lots of thanks in advance.

          The $$h(x+Delta x)>h(x) forall x $$
          tells us $h'(x) >0$ and therefore that $h(x)$ is strictly increasing. You saw this.
          Now, we have that $$xin Bbb R to sin x not> 1$$
          and that $$0<x<1 to sin x approx x$$
          Which implies $$3x>sin x$$



          All you need for the $2^{h(x)-5}$ is that:



          $$alpha in Bbb R implies 2^alpha > 0$$

            In the statement, $Delta x$ is not quantified, so we don't know that the inequality holds for all $Delta x$'s. Even if it were universally quantified, the inequality would hold for a jump discontinuity, which isn't differentiable.

          For $x > 0$, $3x > sin x$. Then we add something positive to the side that's already larger...



          At $x=0$, we're instead comparing (zero + positive) to (zero), and $3x+2^{text{whatever}} > sin x$. Combine the two parts, and $2^{h(x)-5} + 3x > sin x$ for all $xge 0$.

            Of course, @Ross Millikan. I considered using $ge$ signs instead, but wrote the strict inequality version instead. The full solution is probably a little simpler with the $ge$ signs, because then we don't have to handle zero separately.

          Recall from geometric constructions that $sin x leq x$. Also, $x leq 3x < 3x + 2^y$ because $2^y > 0$ for all $yin Bbb R$. Combine these and you're done.

            For $x > 0$, $3x > sin x$. Then we add something positive to the side that's already larger...



            At $x=0$, we're instead comparing (zero + positive) to (zero), and $3x+2^{text{whatever}} > sin x$. Combine the two parts, and $2^{h(x)-5} + 3x > sin x$ for all $xge 0$.

              Of course, @Ross Millikan. I considered using $ge$ signs instead, but wrote the strict inequality version instead. The full solution is probably a little simpler with the $ge$ signs, because then we don't have to handle zero separately.

            Recall from geometric constructions that $sin x leq x$. Also, $x leq 3x < 3x + 2^y$ because $2^y > 0$ for all $yin Bbb R$. Combine these and you're done.

                    Para el género de plantas, véase Musa (planta). Apolo y la Nueve Musas En la mitología griega, las musas (en griego antiguo μοῦσαι « mousai» ) son, según los escritores más antiguos, las divinidades inspiradoras de las Artes: cada una de ellas está relacionada con ramas artísticas y del conocimiento. Son hijas de Zeus y de Mnemósine, compañeras del séquito de Apolo, dios olímpico de la música y patrón de las bellas artes, quien tuvo romances con cada una de ellas, dejando descendientes. Bajaban a la tierra a susurrar ideas e inspirar a aquellos mortales que las invocaran. En la época más arcaica eran las ninfas inspiradoras de las fuentes, en las cuales eran adoradas. Finalmente, alrededor de los siglos VIII-VII a. C. [ 1 ] ​ prevaleció en todo el territorio de la Hélade la adoración de las nueve Musas, que son Calíope, Clío, Erato, Euterpe, Melpómene, Polimnia, Talía, Terpsícore y Urania. El culto a las musas era originalmente de Tracia y Beocia, y fueron de vital impo...
