b. πππ₯.πΈ=34, ππ’π.πΈ=34, πππ.πΈ=23, πΌππ.πΈ= does not exist
c. πππ₯.πΈ=34, ππ’π.πΈ=34, πππ.πΈ= does not exist , πΌππ.πΈ=does not exist
d. πππ₯.πΈ=34, ππ’π.πΈ=34, πππ.πΈ= does not exist , πΌππ.πΈ=23
Solution
Let's analyze the given set and identify the values of the maximum, supremum, minimum, and infimum.
Given Set Definition:
The set is defined as:
Breaking Down the Expression:
- Summation: is a summation of a series from to . This equals:
- Set : Each element in the set is of the form:
where . As takes different values, will vary based on .
Evaluating :
- As becomes larger, approaches 0, making approach 1.
- For , .
- For , .
- As increases, the values approach 1 from the left.
Analyzing Extremes:
- Supremum () is the least upper bound of the set. Here, the supremum is 1.
- Maximum () is the greatest element in the set, if it exists. As becomes large, , but 1 is not achieved for any finite . Hence, does not exist.
- Infimum () is the greatest lower bound. Since gives , which is the smallest value, the infimum is .
- Minimum () is the least element in the set. It exists and is when .
Conclusion:
Let's match this with the provided options:
- Option A: . This is incorrect.
- Option B: does not exist. This is incorrect.
- Option C: (\max E = \frac{3}{4}, \sup E
