15.2. THEOREM. Let a be a point in the domain D of the function f. The following statements are equivalent: (a) f is continuous at a. (b) If e is any positive real number, there exists a positive number 8(e) such that if x € D and x – al < ô(e), then |f(x) - f(a)| < e. (c) If (xn) is any sequence of elements of D which converges to a, then the sequence (f(xn)) converges to f (a).

15.L. We say that a function f on R to R is additive if it satisfies
f(x + y) = f(x) + f(y)
for all x, y
continuous at any point of R. Show that a monotone additive function is con-
tinuous at every point.
R. Show that an additive function which is continuous at x =
O is

15.2. THEOREM. Let a be a point in the domain D of the function f.
The following statements are eguivalent:
(a) f is continuous at a.
(b) If e is any positive real number, there exists a positive number ô (e)
such that if x € D and x – al < 8(e), then \f(x) – f(a)| < e.
(c) If (x,) is any sequence of elements of D which converges to a, then
the sequence (f (xn)) converges to f(a).
