Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Let u and v be real numbers such that (u+u²+u³+⋯+u⁸)+10u⁹=(v+v²+v³+⋯+v¹⁰)+10v¹¹=8. Determine, with proof, which of the two numbers, u or v , is larger.
Original LaTeX notation
Let $u$ and $v$ be real numbers such that \[(u + u^2 + u^3 + \cdots + u^8) + 10u^9 = (v + v^2 + v^3 + \cdots + v^{10}) + 10v^{11} = 8.\] Determine, with proof, which of the two numbers, $u$ or $v$ , is larger.Discussion
