Bounded, measurable and supported on a set of finite measure function
$begingroup$
Suppose f is a bounded and measurable function on R and supported on a set of finite measure. Prove that for every $epsilon gt 0$ there exists a simple function $s$ such that $int |f-s|dx$ $lt epsilon$
I have question: Can I let this simple function be supported on a set of finite measure? Then this simple function will be bounded and measurable and supported, then I can use the linearity of integral and the definition of the integral of this kind of functions to prove that.
I am wondering if I am right. I really appreciate your help if you would like to give me another proof.
Thanks

You can choose any simple function that satisfies the condition whether it is supported by finite set or not. In fact, simple function is always bounded and measurable without any condition.

We assume that $f$ is supported on $E$ which $m(E)=L<infty.$ So we can consider a function $f$ on E.
Since $f$ is bounded, it must have a and b such that
$a leq f(x) leq b$ for all $xin E$. Let $N > frac{L(b-a)}{varepsilon}.$
We define $E_i = {x in E : a+i(b-a)/N leq f(x) < a+(i+1)(b-a)/N}$.
Choose $x_iin E_i$ and define
$ s(x) = sum_{i=0}^{N} f(x_i) lambda(E_i)$.
Then you can show that
$|f(x)-s(x)|leq frac{varepsilon}{L}.$
And so on.

Let $X$ be the support of $f$ and $mathbb{1}_X$ its characteristic function. Now observe that $f=fcdot mathbb{1}_X$ and that $s cdot mathbb{1}_X$ approximate $f$.
