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 $g(x) = begincases x, & x le 0,\
x+2, & x > 0endcases$

Note that $ f(t) <0 = (-infty,-1)$.



Then $g(0)= -1$, but $g(x) = x+1$ for $x >0$.
