Let

f: (0,+\infty)\rightarrow (0,+\infty)

be a function satisfying the following condition: for arbitrary positive real numbers

x

and

y

, we have

f(xy)\le f(x)f(y)

. Show that for arbitrary positive real number

x

and natural number

n

, inequality

f(x^n)\le f(x)f(x^2)^{\dfrac{1}{2}}\dots f(x^n)^{\dfrac{1}{n}}

holds.
