Suppose that $f$ is continuous on $mathbbR, lim_x rightarrow infty f(x) = - infty $ and $ lim_x rightarrow inftyf(x) = + infty $. define $g$ be setting
$$g(x)= supt : f(t) <x textfor x in mathbbR$$
Now my question is that
Is $g$ continuous ?
my attempt : No , $g $ need not be continious
take $f(x) = begincases x, & x < 1,\
-x+2,& 1 le x le 2, \
x-2, & x > 2endcases$.
Then $g(x) = begincases x, & x le 0,\
x+2, & x > 0endcases$.

@jasmine As $x to -infty$, $f(x) = |x| to +infty$. Consider increasingly negative values of $x$ - $-10, -100, -1000, -10000$, $f$ maps each to their positive version. Not that this helps much since you need to generalize beyond a specific $f$ but I figured I'd point that out.
