Let X ≤ be any closed and bounded subset of R. and s be the supremum of x = [a, b] such
that the required result holds if [a, b] is replaced by [a, x] that some finite subcollection of the G
covers [a, x]) and s > a, and s<b is impossible. Prove that given any collection {G: α & A} of
open sets such that X = UG, there is some finite subset {.,... } A such that
X ≤UG. Let a = inf X and b = sup X show that [a, b]\ X is an open set.
