For each positive integer n2n\geq 2 we denote with p(n)p(n) the largest prime number less than or equal to nn, and with q(n)q(n) the smallest prime number larger than nn. Prove that k=2n1p(k)q(k)<12. \sum^n_{k=2} \frac 1{p(k)q(k)} < \frac 12.

We say that a function f:RRf: \mathbb R \to \mathbb R has the property (P)(P) if, for any real numbers xx, suptxf(x)=x. \sup_{t\leq x} f(x) = x. a) Give an example of a function with property (P)(P) which has a discontinuity in every real point. b) Prove that if ff is continuous and satisfies (P)(P) then f(x)=xf(x) = x, for all xRx\in \mathbb R.
