comment How many decimal places are needed for incremental average calculation?
@JernejJerin If you are satisfied with the answers, you might consider accepting them, else you might want to indicate what more information you want.

comment Good problem book on Abstract Algebra
I unaccepted your answer and instead accepted Dedalus's answer since on retrospective, I have found some of the book Exercise in Algebra and other books a more concentrated source of problems. I hope you don't mind.

comment Determinant of a Modified Jacobian of a Function
That's all there to it?! I came up with a similar but infinitely cruder solution, however, I was not sure of this. Also, I was thinking there might be some rank-related solution also. Anyway, thanks. :-)

comment How to solve this equation:$\sqrt{x-\sqrt{x-\sqrt{x-\sqrt{x-5}}}}=5$
@vesszabo No, he uses it in this direction, but goes upto infinity, however, I am not sure of the formal justification of the step.

comment How to solve this equation:$\sqrt{x-\sqrt{x-\sqrt{x-\sqrt{x-5}}}}=5$
The logic is similar to $\sqrt{x-5} =5 \implies \sqrt{x-\sqrt{x-5}} = 5$

@TrzyTrypy You can delete the question yourself and that would be the best method to do so.

Added some more explanation. I hope it is more clear now.

@PerManne Yup. Sorry about that, I was going to update it.

comment Existence of $\vee$ or $\wedge$ for non-monotonic functions
But, we first show that there is atleast one, and then prove for all from that single one. About strict inequalities, I guess, whenever there is equality, we get a constant function.

comment Existence of $\vee$ or $\wedge$ for non-monotonic functions
@JasperLoy I removed the continuous function thing, since it was superfluous. Anyway, I have not fixed $a,b,c$, Since, if the first two options from the list are not satisfied anywhere in $R$, then either of the other two options (the third one, and then the original assumption) must be satisfied, then I pick one of them and use it to show that, it applies all over the domain. Because, next you can select another point $e$ and do the same thing as has been done with $b,c,d$ to get the same relation with $c,d,e$ and so on.

Where I mean $K$ by $G_{S}$

comment field generated by a set
@JasonDeVito I guess your objection is invalid, since we are talking about $S$ generating $R$, rather than $S$ being $R$ itself. Since, if $\frac{1}{10} \in S$ then $\frac{k}{10} \in G_{S}$ where $k \in Z$.

@FortuonPaendrag You say that your proof is flawed. I think it would be good if you can probably indicate why do you think it is flawed in the answer itself.

@KevinCarlson Its okay. I do not mind.

comment In what spaces does the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem hold?
I guess not. So, basically, we want to find conditions for total boundedness and completeness from the metric of the space and the set of points? Is this true?

comment In what spaces does the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem hold?
@KevinCarlson Okay. If I say that total boundedness of a closed subspace of a complete metric space implies compactness and vice-versa. Will that address the question enough?

comment How to Find a Finite-Difference Matrix
You might want to learn more about the finite difference methods. I am sure there are enough textbooks on the same that explain the process in detail.

comment Non surjectivity of the exponential map to GL(2,R)
Try $A = \left(\matrix{1 & 0 \\ 0 & -2}\right)$. And show that this cannot be an exponential, since exponential cannot be negative in $\mathbb{R}$.

comment Sequence of convex functions
@LVK Why are we not considering infinity? Why only real values?
