Proving Inequalities Involving Summations and Sq. Roots












0












$begingroup$


How can I prove that $sum_{i=1}^{n} |a_i| leq sqrt{n} sqrt{sum_{i=1}^{n} a_{i}^{2}}$ considering that $ a_{1}, a_{2}, a_{3}, ... , a_{n} $ are real numbers?



This exercise was presented in a section that also covered Cauchy Schwarz: $ (sum_{i=1}^{n}a_{i}b_{i})^2 leq (sum_{i=1}^{n}a_{i}^2)(sum_{i=1}^{n}b_{i}^2) $ but I am unsure if anything related to Cauchy Schwarz is involved in this proof.



On the RHS, I proceeded with $ sqrt{n} sqrt{sum_{i=1}^{n} a_{i}^{2}} $ = $ sqrt{nsum_{i=1}^{n} a_{i}^{2} } $ but then I'm stuck and unsure how to proceed. Any hints/help in this direction is greatly appreciated.



Thank you!

    Write $|a_i| = 1cdot |a_i|$ and apply C-S.

$begingroup$

Let $b_i =1$ for $1le ile n$



Then apply Cauchy Schwartz inequality to $|a_i|$ and your $b_i=1$



You get the result right away upon taking square root of both sides.
