... 2.2.1 (b) sup(S) = ∞, inf(S) = 0. (c) sup(S) = ∞, inf(S) = −∞. 2.2.3 (a) Let α = sup(S) for convenience. Notice that for every s ∈ S, s ≤ α, and so since a > 0, as ≤ aα. So, aα is an upper bound for aS. Now suppose b < aα. Then ab < α, and so ab is not an upper bound for S. Therefore there exists an ...
