6. Let X be a non-empty subset of an ordered field with the least upper bound property. Supposed that X is bounded above and define -X = {-1 : TEX} Prove that supX = - inf(-X).
Recall that (a,b)⊆R means an open interval on the real number line: (a,b)={x∈R|a<x<b}. Let ≤ be the usual “less than or equal to” total order on the set A=(−2,0)∪(0,2). Consider the subset B={−1/n | n∈N,n≥1}⊆A. Determine an upper bound for B in A.. Then formally prove that B has no least upper bound in A by arguing that every element of A fails the criteria in the definition of least upper bound. Note: make sure you are addressing the technical...
given the definition: A partially ordered set S is said to be "inductive" if every chain of S has an upper bound in S. Show that (1) and (2) are equivalent. Show that D Every inductive set has a maximal element inductive set and let xeX, then maximal element b (2) Let X be an Xhas at least Such that asb. one Show that D Every inductive set has a maximal element inductive set and let xeX, then maximal element...
PROBLEM e Definition: A GROUP is a set S paired with an operation *, denoted <S,*> satisfying the four properties; G0: CLOSURE - For any a, b in S, a * b in S G1: ASSOCIATIVITY - For all a, b, c in S, (a * b) * c = a * (b * c) G2: IDENITY - There exists an element e in S such that a * e = e = b * a, for all a in...

(a) Prove by using the definition of convergence only, without using limit theo- (b) Prove by using the definition of continuity, or by using the є_ó property, that 3. Let f be a twice differentiable function defined on the closed interval [0, 1]. Suppose rems, that if (S) is a sequence converging to s, then lim, 10 2 f (x) is a continuous function on R r,s,t e [0,1] are defined so that r...
Question 2. Prove that if S C R is bounded above then its least upper bound is unique. Le, that if X,, R are both least upper bounds for S then ג ,
Prove that the real numbers have the least upper bound property, i.e. any bounded above subset S ⊆ R has a supremum if and only if the real numbers have the greatest lower bound property, i.e. any bounded below subset T ⊆ R has an infimum.
Please answer all parts. Thank you! 20. Let R be a commutative ring with identity. We define a multiplicative subset of R to be a subset S such that 1 S and ab S if a, b E S. Define a relation ~ on R × S by (a, s) ~ (a, s') if there exists an s"e S such that s* (s,a-sa,) a. 0. Show that ~ is an equivalence relation on b. Let a/s denote the equivalence class...

Consider the poset where for a and b in , a < b if and only if a|b. The join of a and b is their least common multiple and the meet of a and b is their greatest common divisor: a ⋁ b = LCM(a,b) and a ⋀ b =GCD(a,b) Verify the associative property holds for Part B: As an example, answer for A are shown below: We were unable to transcribe this imageWe were unable to transcribe this image3.
