Megoldás. Tetszőleges \(\displaystyle a,b\) valós számokra \(\displaystyle (a-b)^2\ge 0\) miatt teljesül \(\displaystyle a^2+b^2\ge 2ab\). Ezért \(\displaystyle x^4+1\ge 2x^2\), továbbáha \(\displaystyle y\) nemnegatív, akkor \(\displaystyle y^3+y=y(y^2+1)\ge y(2y)=2y^2\). Mindezek alapján
\(\displaystyle x^4 + y^3 + x^2 + y + 1\ge 3x^2+2y^2\ge 2(\sqrt{3}x)(\sqrt{2}y)> \frac{9}{2}xy,\)
hiszen \(\displaystyle xy\) nemnegatív és \(\displaystyle 2\sqrt{6}>9/2\).
