Suppose $f:mathbbR^2tomathbbR^2$ is differentiable with uniformly bounded partial derivatives $$left|dfracpartial f_ipartial x_j(x_1,x_2)right|leq 1$$ for all $(x_1,x_2)inmathbbR^2$ and for $i,j=1,2$. Show that there is a constant $L$ such that $left|f(y)-f(x)
right|leq Lleft|y-xright|$ for all $x,yinmathbbR^2.$



My idea is to use the Mean Value Theorem and I think that $L$ should be taken as the norm of the Jacobian but I don't know how to proceed.

          Write $x = (x_1,x_2), y = (y_1,y_2)$. Then $|f_i(x_1,x_2) - f_i(y_1,x_2)| le |x_1-y_1|$ and $|f_i(y_1,x_2)-f_i(y_1,y_2)| le |x_2-y_2|$ for $i=1,2$ by MVT. So



          $$||f(x)-f(y)|| le ||f(x_1,x_2)-f(y_1,x_2)||+||f(y_1,x_2)-f(y_1,y_2)||$$ $$ le sqrt2+sqrt2 le 2,$$ where this last inequality used that $a+b le sqrt2(a^2+b^2).$
