Algebraic Geometry local ringed space POTW

[Euge]

Here is this week's POTW:

-----
Suppose $(X, \mathscr{O}_X)$ is a locally ringed space. Show that for all $\mathscr{O}_X$-modules $\mathscr{F}$ and $\mathscr{G}$ of finite type, $\operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{F}\otimes_{\mathscr{O}_X} \mathscr{G}) = \operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{F})\cap \operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{G})$.-----

Let $\mathscr{F}$ and $\mathscr{G}$ be $\mathscr{O}_X$ modules of finite type. If $x\notin\operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{F}) \cap \operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{G})$, then either $\mathscr{F}_x = 0$ or $\mathscr{G}_x = 0$. It follows that $\mathscr{F}_x \otimes_{\mathscr{O}_{X,x}} \mathscr{G}_x = 0$, or $(\mathscr{F}\otimes_{\mathscr{O}_X} \mathscr{G})_x = 0$. Thus $x\notin \operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{F}\otimes_X \mathscr{G})$. Conversely, if $x\notin \operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{F}\otimes \mathscr{G})$, then $\mathscr{F}_x \otimes_{\mathscr{O}_{X,x}} \mathscr{G}_x = 0$. As $\mathscr{F}$ and $\mathscr{G}$ are of finite type, $\mathscr{F}_x$ and $\mathscr{G}_x$ are finitely generated modules over local ring $\mathscr{O}_{X,x}$. Nakayama's lemma implies $\mathscr{F}_x = 0$ or $\mathscr{G}_x = 0$, i.e., $x\notin \operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{F}) \cap \operatorname{Supp}(\mathscr{G})$.
