Suppose $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are two bounded nonnegative functions, does it hold that if $g(x)leq L$ then $$int_0^T f(x)g(x)dxleq L int_0^T f(x)dx$$



I think the answer is yes as it follows from monotonicity property of Lebesgue integral and $f(x)g(x)leq f(x)L$. Since $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are bounded, the inequality above indeed make sense. Is it right?

  • Yes. This is still true if f is just integrable. Nonnegativity is superfluous as well if you assume g is bounded.

  • @JamesYang Is it not neccesary to assume that $g$ is also integrable? In other case $fg$ could not be integrable.

  • @JamesYang Are you sure that nonnegativity is superfluous? As I cannot have $f(x)g(x) leq f(x)L$ almost everywhere if $f(x)$ is negative for some point.

  • @mfl $g$ is bounded and thus integrable.

  • @JamesYang A bounded function is Lebesgue integrable if measurable. This is not assumed in the OP question.
