Show that B = {[a, b) ⊂ ℝ | a < b} is a basis for a topology on ℝ

Mathematics
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Remember that a set \mathcal{B} is a base for some topology on \mathbb{R} if satisfy the following properties:

1. \mathbb{R}=\cup\{B: B\in\mathcal{B}\}

2. For B, B^* \in \mathcal{B}, If p\in B\cap B^* then exist B_p\in\mathcal{B} such that p\in B_p\subset B\cap B^*.

Now, for B=\{[a,b)\subset\mathbb{R}| a < b\} we verify the above properties:

1. It's clear that \mathbb{R}=\cup_{a,b \text{ with }a

2. Let B=[a,b), B^*=[c,d) \in \mathcal{B}, p\in B\cap B^*. Without loss of generality suppose that a. Then c\leq p < b, this implies that p\in[c,b) and B_p=[c,d) \in \mathcal{B} and B_p\subset B\cap B^*.

Then, B satisfy the two properties. This show that B is a basis for a topology in \mathbb{R}

Kitty [74]

Answer:

Since we have given that

Surface area of sphere = 576 pi cm. sq.

As we know the formula,

Surface area of sphere is given by

So, the volume of a sphere would be

Hence, the required volume is 7241.14 cm³.

In 1999, there were 9860 Great Danes registered with the American Kennel Club. The number of registered Labrador Retrievers was
jekas [21]

Answer:

153,997 Labrador Retrievers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make an equation for this problem. We know that there were 9,860 Great Danes. The number of Labrador Retrievers was 6,997 more than 15 times the number of registered Great Danes. More than can be changed to a plus sign. 15 times the number of Great Danes is 15 times 9,860. The equation is now 15*9,860 + 6,997.

15*9,860 is 147,900

147,900 + 6,997 is 153,997.

Step-by-step explanation:

The account balance is given by ...

  A = P·e^(rt)

where P is the principal invested at interest rate r for t years.

  A = $25,000×e^(0.0875·25) ≈ $222,822.57
