Question

**Suppose A and B are each bounded above. Define the set A + B as follows:**

\[ A + B = \{a + b: a \in A, \, b \in B\} \]

We claim that
\[ \sup(A + B) \leq \sup A + \sup B \]

To prove this, we first let $ m = \sup A $ and $ n = \sup B $. The existence of the supremums is guaranteed by axiom 5.2.4. We need to show that $ m + n $ is an upper bound for the set $ A + B $. If this is true, then the least upper bound of $ A + B $ (which we know is $ \sup(A + B) $) must be no larger than $ m + n $. Now for any $ a \in A $, we know $ a \leq m $, and for any $ b \in B $, we know $ b \leq n $, hence $ a + b \leq m + n $ for any $ a + b \in A + B $. This shows that $ m + n $ is an upper bound for $ A + B $ and hence $ \sup(A + B) \leq m + n = \sup A + \sup B $.

*Using the notation above, show $\inf(A + B) \geq \inf A + \inf B$.*

*Provide examples of sets A and B where strict inequality $\sup(A + B) < \sup A + \sup B$ holds.*
