  1. If $f$ is a continuous function from $X$ to $Y$ and $A$ is a subset of $X$ then is it true that $x \in A^d$ implies $f(x) \in (f(A))^d$? Here $A^d$ is the derived set of $A$.

  2. If $f$ is a continuous function from $X$ to $Y$ and $X$ is a compact space,then show that $f$ is bounded and attains its bounds.

  3. $A$ and $B$ are two compact subsets of a Hausdorff space $Y$.

    i. Union of $A$ and $B$ is compact in $Y$:

    $A$ and $B$ are closed and hence the union is closed,so it is compact.

    ii. Intersection of $A$ and $B$ is compact in $Y$:

    $A$ and $B$ are closed and hence the intersection is closed,so it is compact.

    iii. $\operatorname{fr}(A)$ is compact:

    $\operatorname{fr}(A)$ is the intersection of $\operatorname{cl}(A)$ and $\operatorname{cl}(Y-A)$. Intersection of two closed sets, hence compact. Am I correct?
