(III) If 0 ≤ a < ε for all ε > 0, then show that a = 0. Using this conclude that if b ≤ a < b + ε for all ε > 0, then a = b. Hint: On contrary assume that a ≠ 0, then a > 0. Now choose your ε > 0 in a clever way to get a contraction.

Lemma 1.4.5 If x is an accumulation point of S and ε > 0, then there are an infinite number of points of S within ε of x. Prove lemma 1.4.5 (Hint: Sippose that for some ε > 0, there were only a finite number of points s1,s2,..,s within ε of x. Let ε' = min{|s1-x|, |s2-x|,... |sn-x|}. Now show that no s exists in S satisfies 0 < |s-x| < ε'.)

Problem 3 Countable and Uncountable Sets (a) Show that there are uncountably infinite many real numbers in the interval (0, 1). (Hint: Prove this by contradiction. Specifically, (i) assume that there are countably infinite real numbers in (0, 1) and denote them as x1, x2, x3, · · · ; (ii) express each real number x1 between 0 and 1 in decimal expansion; (iii) construct a number y whose digits are either 1 or 2.

Question about the Mathematical Real Analysis Proof Show that if xn → 0 then √xn → 0. Proof. Let ε > 0 be arbitrary. Since xn → 0 there is some N ∈N such that |xn| < ε^2 for all n > N. Then for all n > N we have that |√xn| < ε My question is based on the sequence convergence definition it should be absolute an-a<ε    but here why we can take xn<ε^2 rather than ε?...

Based on the definition of the linear regression model in its matrix form, i.e., y=Xβ+ε, the assumption that ε~N(0,σ2I), and the general formula for the point estimators for the parameters of the model (b=XTX-1XTy); show: how to derivate the formula for the point estimators for the parameters of the models by means of the Least Square Estimation (LSE). [Hint: you must minimize ete] that the LSE estimator, i.e., b=XTX-1XTy, is unbiased. [Hint: E[b]=β]

Calculate the extinction coeffiction (ε, absorptivity) of each compound using Beer-Lambert's Law ; A = εbc. Because of the small amount of material used, you get 2 significant figures. A = absorbance ε = absorptivity b = path length (1 cm) c = concentration (moles/L) My masses were 1.9mg (1), 2.3mg (2) and 2.1mg (3). The MW were 572.53 (1) , 486.35 (2) and 512.39 (3) .
