Suppose that $\{f_c(x)\}$ for all $c\in [a, b]$ is a family of measurable functions defined on $\mathbb R$.
Suppose that for each $x$, $c\mapsto f_c(x)$ is continuous.
Show that the function $g(x)= \sup{\{f_c(x): c\in [a,b] \}}$ is measurable.
In my opinion only supreme of countable collection measurable functions is measurable. but here we have uncountable collection.so where do i use the continuity of $g(x)$?
Hint: Let $u\in \mathbb{R}$, $A=\{x; g(x)>u\}$, $\displaystyle B=\cup_{c\in \mathbb{Q}\cap[a,b]}\{x;f_c(x)>u\}$. Show that $A=B$.
