    Assignment 2, Math 220 Due: Friday, January 25th, 2002

    1 Let S = {1 (1)n /n : n N} . Find inf S and sup S and prove your answers. 2 Let S R and suppose that s = sup S belongs to S . If u S , show that sup (S {u}) = sup{s , u}. 3 Show that a nonempty nite set S R contains its supremum. Hint: Use Mathematical Induction and the previous question. 4 Question 12.4, page 113 of Lay (4th edition). 5 Suppose that a and b are rational numbers with a < b. Give an explicit example of an irrational number with a < < b. 6 Question 13.4, page 121 of Lay (4th edition).
