## Problema 2
Fie mulțimea A = { n + 1 − n n 2 + n ∣ n ∈ N ∗ } A=\left\{\left.\frac{\sqrt{n+1}-\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n^{2}+n}} \right\rvert\, n \in \boldsymbol{N}^{*}\right\} A = { n 2 + n n + 1 − n n ∈ N ∗ } .
a) Demonstraţi că n + 1 − n n 2 + n = 1 n − 1 n + 1 \frac{\sqrt{n+1}-\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n^{2}+n}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{n+1}} n 2 + n n + 1 − n = n 1 − n + 1 1 , oricare ar fi n ∈ N ∗ n \in \boldsymbol{N}^{*} n ∈ N ∗ .
b) Să se demonstreze că: 6 − 5 5 2 + 5 + 7 − 6 6 2 + 6 + ⋯ + 2014 − 2013 2013 2 + 2013 = 1 5 − 1 2014 \frac{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5^{2}+5}}+\frac{\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{6^{2}+6}}+\cdots+\frac{\sqrt{2014}-\sqrt{2013}}{\sqrt{2013^{2}+2013}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2014}} 5 2 + 5 6 − 5 + 6 2 + 6 7 − 6 + ⋯ + 201 3 2 + 2013 2014 − 2013 = 5 1 − 2014 1 .
c) Să se demonstreze că există o submulțime B B B a lui A A A astfel încât suma elementelor din B B B să fie 1 315 \frac{1}{\sqrt{315}} 315 1 .
This one wants a proof. Work it on paper, then read the official solution and mark
yourself. Be honest about it: the record is only any use to you if it is.

a)
1 n − 1 n + 1 = n + 1 n ( n + 1 ) − n n ( n + 1 ) = n + 1 − n n ( n + 1 ) = n + 1 − n n 2 + n \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{n+1}}=\frac{\sqrt{n+1}}{\sqrt{n(n+1)}}-\frac{\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n(n+1)}}=\frac{\sqrt{n+1}-\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n(n+1)}}=\frac{\sqrt{n+1}-\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n^{2}+n}} n 1 − n + 1 1 = n ( n + 1 ) n + 1 − n ( n + 1 ) n = n ( n + 1 ) n + 1 − n = n 2 + n n + 1 − n
