Exercise 7.4.8

For each n N , let

h n ( x ) = { 1 2 n  if  1 2 n < x 1 0  if  0 x 1 2 n ,

and set H ( x ) = n = 1 h n ( x ) . Show H is integrable and compute 0 1 H .

Answers

0 1 h i = ( 1 2 ) n ( 1 4 ) n . H n ( x ) = i = 1 n h i ( x ) is integrable, and ( H n ) H uniformly, so an application of the geometric series formula and the Integrable Limit Theorem gives us 0 1 H = 2 3 .
