$$\sum _{k=1}^n\sqrt[3]{k}\:>\frac{3}{4}n\sqrt[3]{n}$$
We have the inequality as defined as above. Clearly, one can prove it by induction; it would not be hard. However, it looks suspiciously like it could be done by Jensen's inequality; I am just not sure how. I tried the obvious substitution $f(x)=x^{1/3}$, but then this function is concave, and I cannot use it to prove the inequality. So, I was just wondering if anyone is able to use Jensen's to prove this inequality? Or is there any other inequality that anyone knows that can be used to prove this question without induction?
