Proof.<br />
First we observe that y − zj = q(x) − q(xj) ≤ x − xj,<br />
proving that that y = limj→∞ zj in X/J.<br />
Let ǫ > 0. Since {yn} is Cauchy there is an M ∈ N such that<br />
yn − ym < ǫ when n,m ≥ M. In particular, zj − ym < ǫ for all<br />
m > M and all sufficiently large j.<br />
By letting j tend to infinity we deduce that y − ym < ǫ for all<br />
m > M.<br />
