The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate each proposition for \( n > 1 \) where \( n \) is a natural number. Let's check each option step by step. ### Step 1: Evaluate Option 1 **Proposition:** \( 1 + \frac{1}{4} n^2 < n - \frac{1}{2} \) 1. Substitute \( n = 2 \): \[ 1 + \frac{1}{4} \cdot 2^2 < 2 - \frac{1}{2} \] This simplifies to: \[ 1 + \frac{1}{4} \cdot 4 < 2 - 0.5 \] \[ 1 + 1 < 1.5 \] \[ 2 < 1.5 \quad \text{(False)} \] **Conclusion:** This proposition is not true for \( n = 2 \). ### Step 2: Evaluate Option 2 **Proposition:** \( 1 + \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}} > \sqrt{n} \) 1. Substitute \( n = 2 \): \[ 1 + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} > \sqrt{2} \] This simplifies to: \[ 1 + \frac{1}{1.414} > 1.414 \] \[ 1 + 0.707 > 1.414 \] \[ 1.707 > 1.414 \quad \text{(True)} \] ### Step 3: Evaluate Option 3 **Proposition:** \( \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{n} > \frac{13}{24} \) 1. Substitute \( n = 2 \): \[ \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} > \frac{13}{24} \] This simplifies to: \[ 1 > \frac{13}{24} \] \[ 1 = \frac{24}{24} > \frac{13}{24} \quad \text{(True)} \] ### Step 4: Evaluate Option 4 **Proposition:** \( \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{4} > \frac{1}{6} + \sqrt{n} \) 1. Substitute \( n = 2 \): \[ \frac{3}{8} > \frac{1}{6} + \sqrt{2} \] This simplifies to: \[ 0.375 > 0.1667 + 1.414 \] \[ 0.375 > 1.5807 \quad \text{(False)} \] ### Final Conclusion The proposition that is not true for \( n > 1 \) is **Option 4**. ---
