Question
Reconstruct the proof of the following statement:
The supremum of a bounded from above subset A of R is unique.
Proof.
We do a proof by
Assume that x₁ and x2 are both supremum of A with x₁
for all e> 0 there exists x E A such that x
x₁.This proves that x₁ is not an
x2. Since x₂ =
It follows that there exists x EA such that x
