I am trying to find the integer $n$ such that \begin{align} 1-a c^{n-1} \ge \exp(-\frac{1}{n}) \end{align} where $a>0$ and $c \in (0,1)$.
I know that finding it exactly is difficult. However, can one find good upper and lower bounds it.
It tried using lower bound $\exp(-x) \le 1-x+\frac{1}{2}x^2$. However, it didn't really work.
