Question Number 145530 by mathdanisur last updated on 05/Jul/21

((1/2) + ((∣a∣ + ∣b∣)/(∣a + b∣)))_(min) = ?

$$\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\:+\:\frac{\mid{a}\mid\:+\:\mid{b}\mid}{\mid{a}\:+\:{b}\mid}\right)_{\boldsymbol{{min}}} =\:? \\ $$

∣a+b∣≤∣a∣+∣b∣ ⇒ ((∣a∣+∣b∣)/(∣a+b∣)) ≥1  ⇒ ((1/2)+((∣a∣+∣b∣)/(∣a+b∣)))≥(3/2)  take min=(3/2)..

$$\mid\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}\mid\leqslant\mid\mathrm{a}\mid+\mid\mathrm{b}\mid\:\Rightarrow\:\frac{\mid\mathrm{a}\mid+\mid\mathrm{b}\mid}{\mid\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}\mid}\:\geqslant\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\mid\mathrm{a}\mid+\mid\mathrm{b}\mid}{\mid\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}\mid}\right)\geqslant\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{take}\:\mathrm{min}=\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}.. \\ $$
