(choose chapter or problem)

If \(f\) is increasing on an interval \([0, b)\), then it follows from Definition 4.1.1 that \(f(0)<f(x)\) for each \(x\) in the interval \((0, b)\). Use this result in these exercises.

(a) Show that \(\ln (x+1) \leq x \text { if } x \geq 0\).

(b) Show that \(\ln (x+1) \geq x-\frac{1}{2} x^{2} \text { if } x \geq 0\).

(c) Confirm the inequalities in parts (a) and (b) with a graphing utility.
