If 𝑓 is a continuous function from a metric space X into a metric space Y and {𝑥𝑛} is a sequence in X
which converges to 𝑥 then show that the sequence {𝑓(𝑥𝑛)} converges to 𝑓(𝑥) in Y.
𝑓 is a continuous function from a metric space X into a metric space Y if and only if is continuous at every point of X.
is the limit of the sequence if and only if
(1)
Fix . Since 𝑓 is a continuous function at point then
(2)
Since , there exists such that for all .
Applying (2), we get .
Finally, we have deduced (1), and the assertion is proved.
