Question

Please answer part d of this question, thank you

For this problem, let f: R→ R be a function. We say that a non-empty set UCR is ajar if
Vu € U, 3r> 0 such that (u-r, u + r) CU.
(a) Show that (0, 2) is ajar.
(b) Find a set that is not ajar. You don't need to prove it.
My set is
In the following parts, we will use the follow two definitions.
For ACR, we define f(A) := {f(a): a € A}.
For BCR, we define f¹(B) := {r € R: f(r) € B}.
Note that f(A) and f-¹(B) are both sets.
(c) Show that va € R, Ve > 0,36 > 0 such that f ((a-5, a +5)) (f(a)- e, f(a) + e) is equivalent
to the definition of f is continuous everywhere.
