proof

let x be Point of I[01]; :: thesis: (P1 + Q1) . x = (f * (P + Q)) . x
A4: ( f . a,f . b are_connected & f . b,f . c are_connected ) by A1, Th23;

per cases ( x <= 1 / 2 or x >= 1 / 2 ) ;

suppose A5: x <= 1 / 2 ; :: thesis: (P1 + Q1) . x = (f * (P + Q)) . x

then A6: 2 * x is Point of I[01] by BORSUK_6:3;
thus (P1 + Q1) . x = P1 . (2 * x) by A4, A5, BORSUK_2:def 5
.= f . (P . (2 * x)) by A2, A6, FUNCT_2:15
.= f . ((P + Q) . x) by A1, A5, BORSUK_2:def 5
.= (f * (P + Q)) . x by FUNCT_2:15 ; :: thesis: verum

end;

suppose A7: x >= 1 / 2 ; :: thesis: (P1 + Q1) . x = (f * (P + Q)) . x

then A8: (2 * x) - 1 is Point of I[01] by BORSUK_6:4;
thus (P1 + Q1) . x = Q1 . ((2 * x) - 1) by A4, A7, BORSUK_2:def 5
.= f . (Q . ((2 * x) - 1)) by A3, A8, FUNCT_2:15
.= f . ((P + Q) . x) by A1, A7, BORSUK_2:def 5
.= (f * (P + Q)) . x by FUNCT_2:15 ; :: thesis: verum
