Hint: Apply AM-GM to the n numbers
1, 2, 22, 23, . . ., 2n-1

@shoumik even if n<0 it wont make 2n-1<0 so we can apply A.M..G.M.

here's my solution.
observe that
2^0+2^1+2^2+...+2^{n-1}=2^n-1
applying AM-GM to the LHS we have
\frac{2^n-1}{n}\ge2^{\frac{n(n-1)}{n}}

or 2^n \ge 1+ n.2^n-1

which is what we wanted
