The inequality ey≥1+y, holds for all y∈R. Assume the function g is monotonously increasing on R. Then, based on the inequality above, we get
f(x+y)=ex+yg(x+y)≥ex(1+y)g(x)=(1+y)f(x),
for all x∈R and all y≥0.
Conversely, assume f(x+y)≥(1+y)f(x), for all x∈R and all y≥0. One can check by induction
f(x+nt)≥(1+t)nf(x),
for all x∈R, t≥0 and n∈N. Let x,z∈R, with x<z.
Denote y=z−x. For n∈N∗ we have
g(z)=e−zf(z)=e−x−yf(x+nny)≥e−x−y(1+ny)nf(x)=ey(1+ny)ng(x).
It follows
g(z)≥n→∞limey(1+ny)ng(x)=g(x),
therefore g is monotonously increasing on R.
