Solution 1. Let x ∈ S◦. Then some neighborhodd B(x, �) is contained in S. We want to show prove t
hat N(x, �) is
contained in S◦. Let y ∈ B(x, �). Then since a neighborhood is an open set, we have a δ > 0 such that
B(y, δ) j B(x, �). And since B(x, �) ⊆ S, we conclude that B(y, δ) ⊆ S. So y ∈ S◦. Since this is true for arbitrary
y ∈ B(x, �) we have B(x, �) ⊆ S◦.
Next, assume that S is open. Let x ∈ S. Then we have that for r > 0 we have B(x, r) ⊂ S. This shows that x ∈ S◦.
This shows that S ⊂ S◦. Also by definition of S◦ we have S◦ ⊂ S, and hence S = S◦.
Now assume S = S◦. We have to prove that S is open. Note that since S = S0 for every point x ∈ S we have
B(y, r) ⊆ S, since this point x is also in the interior. Hence S is open.
Solution. 2 If x ∈ S then clearly for any δ > 0, (x− δ, x+ δ) ∩ S contains atleast {x} and is therefore not empty.
So, x ∈ S̄.
We prove that S̄ is closed by proving R \ S̄ is always open. Now if x ∈ R \ S̄, then ∃ δ > 0 : (x− δ,...
