Question

Define f:[0, 1]→ℝ by

f(x) = 5x if x ∈ ℚ

f(x) = 0 if x ∉ ℚ

Show that U(f) = 1/2 and L(f) = 0, so that f is not integrable on [0, 1].

Expert Solution
Step 1

It is given that f:[0, 1] by

f(x)=5x  if x0    if x

We know, if lower integral and upper integral are unequal, then the function is not Reimann Integrable.
