Minkowski's Inequality for Sums

Theorem
Let $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n, b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_n \in \R_{\ge 0}$ be non-negative real numbers.

Let $p \in \R$, $p \ne 0$ be a real number.

If $p < 0$, then we require that $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n, b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_n$ be strictly positive.

If $p > 1$, then:
 * $\ds \paren {\sum_{k \mathop = 1}^n \paren {a_k + b_k}^p}^{1/p} \le \paren {\sum_{k \mathop = 1}^n a_k^p}^{1/p} + \paren {\sum_{k \mathop = 1}^n b_k^p}^{1/p}$

If $p < 1$, $p \ne 0$, then:
 * $\ds \paren {\sum_{k \mathop = 1}^n \paren {a_k + b_k}^p}^{1/p} \ge \paren {\sum_{k \mathop = 1}^n a_k^p}^{1/p} + \paren {\sum_{k \mathop = 1}^n b_k^p}^{1/p}$

Proof for $p = 2$
$p = 2$ is an easily proved special case:
