"Analysis Problem"
| |
There is something about analysis that i dun quite understand. If f is a continuous function f:R-->R. If f is a local extreme for each x in R,then f(x)=c. R stand for real number. To prove this, I try to prove by contradiction and I let f(x_1)=y_1 and f(x_2)=y_2. y_1<y_2. If we can show that we can find a interval I in such that the function is strictly increasing in the interval. But how can I show this? To be more precise, what I want to show is: If f is continusous and if f(x_1)=y_1 and f(x_2)=y_2. y_1<y_2,x_1<x_2. Then there exist an interval within in which f is strictly increasing in the interval. |
