Determine pointwise limit function and check for uniform convergence

43 Views Asked by At

I've tried this question in different forms multiple times and continue to get the wrong answer.

Let $x_n(t)$ be defined by $$x_n(t) = \begin{cases} 0 & 0 \leq t \leq 4/n \\ 4n & 4/n < t < 7/n \\ 0 & 7/n \leq t \leq 2 \end{cases}$$ Determine the pointwise limit function $x$ and determine whether or not the convergence is uniform.

Any help is appreciated. I'm beyond stuck.

The pointwise limit is the zero function, and note that $\sup_{x\in[0,2]}x_{n}(t)$ becomes more and more larger as $n$ tends larger, so can you conclude that whether the convergence is uniform or not?
