Question
Prove the statement
![Use the Monotone Convergence Theorem (MCT) to prove the Nested Interval Property (NIP) (i.e. you need to prove that given
a family of nested closed intervals {In = [an, bn]} there is an x E R satisfying an ≤ x ≤ b for all n ≤ N).
=
[Hint: Use the fact that the sequence {an} is increasing and bounded above, by b₁ for instance, and then apply MCT.]](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/cfba8c1b-379a-495a-9284-26414a9f3892/c4e033a4-8ae5-449c-82ba-3d61fdc3ae22/qsa3p7o_thumbnail.png)
