Problem
Let 
, 
, 
, 
be positive real numbers, and let
![\[S = x_1 + x_2 + \cdots + x_n.\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/0/1/1/0111387dc55dafd7e8177f5ae5e1ae74b087dcb5.png)
Prove that
![\[(1 + x_1)(1 + x_2) \cdots (1 + x_n) \leq 1 + S + \frac{S^2}{2!} + \frac{S^3}{3!} + \cdots + \frac{S^n}{n!}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/7/6/1/761b88aea2702bf9ff4bfdf260f8bd25df1c85c1.png)
