Could you explain how to show 9.7 in detail?

**Theorem 9.7.** If \( X \) is a metric space and \( Y \subset X \), then \( Y \) is a metric space. **Definition.** A *metric* on a set \( M \) is a function \( d : M \times M \to \mathbb{R}_+ \) (where \( \mathbb{R}_+ \) is the non-negative real numbers) such that for all \( a, b, c \in M \), these properties hold: 1. \( d(a, b) \ge 0 \), with \( d(a, b) = 0 \) if and only if \( a = b \); 2. \( d(a, b) = d(b, a) \); 3. \( d(a, c) \le d(a, b) + d(b, c) \). These three properties are often summarized by saying that a metric is positive definite, symmetric, and satisfies the triangle inequality. A metric space \( (M, d) \) is a set \( M \) with a metric \( d \). **Example.** The function \( d(x, y) = |x - y| \) is a metric on \( \mathbb{R} \). This measure of distance is the *standard metric* on \( \mathbb{R} \). **Example.** On any set \( M \), we can define the *discrete metric* as follows: for any \( a, b \in M \), \( d(a, b) = 1 \) if \( a \neq b \) and \( d(a, a) = 0 \). This metric basically tells us whether two points are the same or different. **Example.** Here’s a strange metric on \( \mathbb{Q} \): for reduced fractions, let \( d\left(\frac{a}{b}, \frac{m}{n}\right) = \max(|a - m|, |b - n|) \). Which rationals are “close” to one another under this metric? **Theorem 9.3.** Let \( d \) be a metric on the set \( X \). Then the collection of all open balls \[ \mathcal{B} = \{B(p, \epsilon) = \{y \in X|d(p, y
