    Need help finding a bound for an equation

    I'm trying to find a value K>o such that for real a,b,c,d (a^2+c^2)x^2+2(ab+cd)xy+(b^2+d^2)y^2 ≤ K(x^2+y^2). Any help on this would be greatly appreciated thanks.

    Continuous Function? g(x): Real Q & Non-Q Cases

    I have come to the conclusion that g must be differentiable at x=0, and thus continuous, since the limit of the difference quotient from above and below exist and are equal. Is this correct? If so what is the most efficient method of proving that it is not differentiable at any other points...

    Continuous Function? g(x): Real Q & Non-Q Cases

    let g:R->R be a real function defined by rule g(x) = x^2 if x\in\mathbb{Q} and g(x) = 0 if x\notin\mathbb{Q} is g continuous (*on R)? Many thanks in advance *thanks for pointing out mistake above.

    Is a Real funcion with a Limit Bounded?

    Hi, just a quick question. Let f be real function s.t. the limit of f as x approaches a equals L. Is f bounded? i.e. is it sufficient to assume a function is bounded if it has a limit. Thanks to all who may reply.

    Confused by separate definitions of sets which are bounded above

    Thank you for your prompt reply. That is exactly the response i was looking for. Just to clarify The existence of an m > 0 is a necessary condition for a set to be bounded above. Though, provided it exists, an m < 0 which is an upper bound is sufficient to justify that a set is bounded above...

    Confused by separate definitions of sets which are bounded above

    I have been consulting different sources of analysis notes. My confusion comes from these two definitions \begin{defn} Let S be a non-empty subset of $\mathbb{R}$. \begin{enumerate} \item $S$ is Bounded above $ \Longleftrightarrow\exists\,M > 0$ s.t. $\forall\, x\in S$, $x\leq M$...
