Transcribed Image Text:## Problems
In Problems 1 through 8 find l.u.b. S and g.l.b. S. State whether or not these numbers are in S.
1. \( S = \{ x : 0 < x \leq 3 \} \)
2. \( S = \{ x : x^2 - 3 < 0 \} \)
3. \( S = \{ x : x^2 - 2x - 3 < 0 \} \)
4. \( S = \{ y : y = x/(x + 1), x \geq 0 \} \)
5. \( S = \{ s_n : s_n = \sum_{i=1}^{n} (1/2)^i, n = 1, 2, \ldots \} \)
6. \( S = \{ s_n : s_n = 1 + \sum_{i=1}^{n} ((-1)^i/i!), n = 1, 2, \ldots \} \)
7. \( S = \{ x : 0 < x < 5, \cos x = 0 \} \)
Please solve these problems by finding the least upper bound (l.u.b.) and greatest lower bound (g.l.b.) for each set \( S \). Determine if these bounds are included in the set \( S \).
