Suppose $fgeq 0$, and $f$ is lebesgue integrable. If $alpha>0$ and $E_alpha={x:f(x)>alpha}$, prove that
$$ m(E_alpha)leq 1/alpha int f $$




My proof attempt



Proof. Let the assumptions be as above. Then
$$ alpha 1_{E_alpha}<f(x)1_{E_alpha} $$
Then by monotonicity of the integral
$$ alphaint 1_{E_alpha}<int f(x)1_{E_alpha}leq int f(x) $$
$implies m(E_alpha)<1/alphaint f$.





My main concern is that I end up with $<$ instead of $leq.$ Any feedback on the proof or style is much appreciated.

          Firstly you have not specified what $x$ is, and note that $alpha mathbf1_{E_alpha}<f(x)mathbf1_{E_alpha}$ is not true for all $x$. What we have is that $alphamathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)<f(x)mathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)$ for all $xin E_alpha$. For all $xnotin E_alpha$ we have $alphamathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)=0=f(x)mathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)$. Thus what we have in general is that $amathbf1_{E_alpha}leq fmathbf1_{E_alpha}$. From this point on your proof seems fine.

          Firstly you have not specified what $x$ is, and note that $alpha mathbf1_{E_alpha}<f(x)mathbf1_{E_alpha}$ is not true for all $x$. What we have is that $alphamathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)<f(x)mathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)$ for all $xin E_alpha$. For all $xnotin E_alpha$ we have $alphamathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)=0=f(x)mathbf1_{E_alpha}(x)$. Thus what we have in general is that $amathbf1_{E_alpha}leq fmathbf1_{E_alpha}$. From this point on your proof seems fine.
