3 part 3
I'm unable to transcribe or provide details on the text that is obscured. However, the visible portion reads:

"3) Show that the functions max : \(\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}\), \((x_1, \ldots, x_n) \mapsto \max(x_1, \ldots, x_n)\), and min : \(\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}\), \((x_1, \ldots, x_n) \mapsto \min(x_1, \ldots, x_n)\) are continuous."

This describes a mathematical problem where one is asked to prove the continuity of the maximum and minimum functions defined over \(n\)-dimensional real space (\(\mathbb{R}^n\)). Continuity, in this context, means that small changes in the input will result in small changes in the output for these functions.
