Please use open set and consequences theorem for justifying the U=X/K as open set. 

 

Definition: Let (xn) be a sequence of real numbers. The sequence (xn) is said to converge to a real number a. if for all ε>0, there exists N in N such that |xn-a|<ε for all n≥N. ... If a sequence converges, then it is called convergent.

 

Definition: An open subset of R is a subset E of R such that for every x in E there exists ϵ > 0 such that Bϵ(x) is contained in E. For example, the openinterval (2,5) is an open set. Any openinterval is an open set.

 

Defn: A set K is closed in X\K={x in X| x is not in K} is an open set.
Note that K={x| x \ge 0} is a closed set because the set XIK={x|x<0} is an open set.
Theorem: If K is a closed set and pj are in K and p_j converge to p, then p is in K.
Note that HW9 is a special case of this theorem where K={x| x \ge 0} is the closed set.
