'''Problem 26.'''
Let $f,g:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be two continuous functions. Define $h(x)=\max\{f(x),g(x)\}$ for all $x\in\mathbb{R}$. Show that $h$ is continuous on $\mathbb{R}$.

'''Problem 27.''' Let $c\geq 0$. Assume $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ satisfies $|f(x)-f(y)|\leq c\cdot |x-y|$ for all $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$.
#Show that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $\mathbb{R}$.
#Now assume that $0<c<1$. Show that there is an $x\in\mathbb{R}$ such that $f(x)=x$. (Hint: for any $y\in\mathbb{R}$ look at the sequence $y,f(y),f(f(y)),f(f(f(y))),\ldots$.
#Show that the result in 2. above may fail if $c=1$.

'''Problem 28.''' Let $D\subseteq\mathbb{R}$. A function $f:D \to \mathbb{R}$ is called ''bounded'' if there is an $M>0$ such that $|f(x)|\leq M$ for all $x\in D$.
#Let $f,g:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be two bounded functions that are uniformly continuous on $\mathbb{R}$. Show that $f\cdot g$ is uniformly continuous on $\mathbb{R}$.
#Show that the result may fail without the boundedness condition.

'''Problem 29.'''
Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be continuous on $\mathbb{R}$, and assume that for all $\varepsilon>0$ there is an $N>0$ such that $|f(x)|<\varepsilon$ for all $x$ satisfying $|x|>N$. Show that $f$ is uniformly continuous on $\mathbb{R}$.

'''Problem 30.''' Let the function $f:[a,b]\to\mathbb{R}$ be continuous on $[a,b]$ and let $F=\{x\in [a,b]\ |\mbox{ there is a } y\neq x\in [a,b] \mbox{ with } f(x)=f(y)\}$. Show that $F$ is empty or uncountable. (Ex. 4.5.4.)
