Properties of Noetherian local ring (Sharp, Exercise 8.33)

Let $(R,M)$ be a Noetherian local ring. Show that
i) If there exists a non-maximal prime ideal of $R$, then $M^{n+1} subset M^{n}$ for every $n in mathbb{N}$
ii) If $I$ is a proper ideal of $R$ and $sqrt{I} neq M$ then $I +M^{n+1} subset I +M^{n}$ for every $n in mathbb{N}$
I think $M^{n+1} subset M^{n}$ is obvious without condition about the existence of non-maximal prime ideal, doesn't it? I have no idea for this problem. Can anyone help me?

$M^{n+1} subset RM^n=M^n$ is that right?

that seems right... isn't part (ii) then obvious as well? we are probably missing something though

The $subset$ subset symbol is definitely meant to indicate strict inclusion here.
For the first part, since trivially $I^n subseteq I^m$ for any ideal $I$ and $n geq m$, the problem is just to prove that $M^{n+1} not= M^{n}$ given the assumption that the ring is not $0$-dimensional.
We will show contrapositively that $M^{n+1} = M^n$ implies that the ring is $0$-dimensional.
Recall that Nakayama's lemma, in one of its incarnations, states the following:
Nakayama's lemma: Let $I$ be an ideal contained in the Jacobson radical of $R$ and $M$ be a finitely generated ideal. If $IM = M$ then $M = 0$.
In a local ring, the Jacobson radical is the unique maximal ideal, which contains our non-maximal ideal $M$. Moreover $M$ is f.g. by the Noetherian assumption. So if we have $MM^n = M^n$ then Nakayama says that $M^n = 0$.
If the maximal ideal is nilpotent, then every nonunit is nilpotent, and this implies that the ring has a unique prime ideal (good elementary exercise).
Hence the ring is $0$-dimensional.
For the second part, note that $(R/I, M/I)$ is a local Noetherian ring, too. Again we show the contrapositive: if $I + M^{n+1} = I + M^n$ then $sqrt{I} = M$. By the first part, if $I + M^{n+1} = I + M^n$ then $R/I$ is $0$-dimensional. So $M$ is the only prime ideal of $R$ containing $I$. But the radical of an ideal is the intersection of the primes containing it, so $sqrt{I} = M$.
It's definitely a bad idea to solve someone homework. He had already two hints in the comments. If he needed more details could have ask.

My intuition from the abundant confusion surrounding this question and from looking at the user's asking history was that this is somebody hopping around in self-directed study rather than doing homework, and that details would be helpful. Granted I might be very wrong about that. I tend to agree that giving out homework solutions sans dialogue doesn't help anybody. Office hours are good.

Thank you @Badam Baplan. It's not my homework, I'd study about Nakayama's lemma and Krull intersection theorem and do some exercises about these theorems.
