Not sure what to use here, would like some help. Thank you. These are Riemann integrals also.



My finished proof:



Since $f$ and $g$ are both continuous on $[a,b]$ then we have that $f$ and $g$ are both integrable on $[a,b]$. Using the proofs that $f^2,g^2,-2fg$ are all integrable on $[a,b]$ we have that $(f-g)^2$ is integrable on $[a,b]$ and that $(f-g)^2ge0$ implies:



$int_a^b(f-g)^2=int_a^bf^2+g^2-2fg=int_a^bf^2+int_a^bg^2-int_a^b2fgge0$



therefore,



$int_a^bf^2+int_a^bg^2geint_a^b2fg$



hence,



$frac{1}{2}(int_a^bf^2+int_a^bg^2)geint_a^bfg$



∎

    This is a version of what's called the "AM-GM" inequality, in case you didn't know.

Hint:



$(f(x) pm g(x))^2 =f^2(x)+g^2(x) pm 2f(x)g(x) ge 0.$



$f^2(x)+g^2(x) ge 2 |f(x)g(x)|$.



Hence



$f(x)g(x) le |f(x)g(x)| le$



$ 2|f(x)g(x)| le f^2(x)+g(x)^2.$

            How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

            Image
            3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question ...

            Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

            Image
            up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title.
