5 i+2+3+ ·+n = zn(n+1)5. Let S be a nonempty subset of R that is bounded above, with upper bound b.Prove that b = sup(S) if the following condition holds : for every e > 0 there isIE S such that b – e < x < b.To prove this, assume that there is some real number c with the property thatc2 x for every r E S and that c < b. Show that this assumption leads to acontradiction, and explain why the contradicted assumption proves thatb= sup(S).
