25 base 4t+1 greater than or equal to 125 base 2t
That is NEVER true!

However,

25 base 4t+1 less than or equal to 125 base 2t

is ALWAYS true!

Proof:

2%2A%284t%2B1%29+%2B+5+%22%22%3C=%22%22+1%2A%282t%29%5E2%2B2%2A%282t%29%2B5

is true if and only if

2%2A%284t%2B1%29%22%22%3C=%22%221%2A%282t%29%5E2%2B2%2A%282t%29

which is true if and only if

8t%2B2%22%22%3C=%22%224t%5E2%2B4t

which is true if and only if

4t%2B2%22%22%3C=%22%224t%5E2

which is true if and only if

-4t%5E2%2B4t%2B2%22%22%3C=%22%220

which is true if and only if

4t%5E2-4t-2%22%22%3E=%22%220

which is true if and only if

2t%5E2-2t-1%22%22%3E=%22%220

which is true for all positive integers t+%3E=+2
