Question

设f(x)=根号x，p,q>0,且p+q=1,求证pf(x1)+qf(x2)=<f(px1+qx2).

要求写出详详细细的解答过程.不得省略.

Answer 1

f(x)=√x
pf(x1)+qf(x2)=p√x1+q√x2
f(px1+qx2)=√(px1+qx2)
p,q大于0,
则，[pf(x1)+qf(x2)]^2-[f(px1+qx2)]^2=
p^2x1+q^2x2+2pq√x1x2-(px1+qx2)
=(p^2-p)x1+(q^2-q)x2+2pq√x1x2
=p(p-1)x1+q(q-1)x2+2pq√x1x2
p+q=1,则
p(p-1)x1+q(q-1)x2+2pq√x1x2
=-(pqx1+pqx2)+2pq√x1x2
由重要不等式得：
(pqx1+pqx2)≥2√pqx1pqx2=2pq√x1x2
所以-(pqx1+pqx2)+2pq√x1x2≤0
所以[pf(x1)+qf(x2)]^2-[f(px1+qx2)]^2≤0
所以[pf(x1)+qf(x2)]≤[f(px1+qx2)]^2
