    If \[n\in N\] and \[n>1,\] then

    A) \[n!>{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]         

    B) \[n!\ge {{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]

    C) \[n!<{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]         

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] when n =2 then \[{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}=\frac{9}{4}\]
    \[\Rightarrow n!<{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]
    When \[n=3,\] then \[n!=6,{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}=8\]
    \[\Rightarrow n!<{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]
    When \[n=4,\] then \[n!=24.\]
    \[{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}=\frac{625}{16}\Rightarrow n!<{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]
    \[\therefore \] It is seen that \[n!<{{\left( \frac{n+1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\]
