Uniform continuity of $f(x)=sum_{n=1}^infty f_n(x)$ on $mathbb R$

$begingroup$


Suppose for $nin mathbb N$, $f_n(x) =
begin{cases}
n(x-n+frac{1}{n}) & text{if $xin [n-frac{1}{n},n]$} \
n(n+frac{1}{n}-x) & text{if $xin [n,n+frac{1}{n}]$} & \ 0 &text{otherwise} end{cases}$
.



Let $f(x)=sum_{n=1}^infty f_n(x)$. Check whether the given function $f(x)$ uniformly continuous or not on $mathbb R$.



My attempt:-



I draw the graph of $f_1, f_2, f_3,..$



enter image description here



From the graph, I can deduce that $f$ is not uniformly continuous on $mathbb R$. For analytical proof. I want to prove there exists an $epsilon_oin mathbb R^+$ such that $ forall delta in mathbb R^+$. $|x-y|<delta implies |f(x)-f(y)|ge epsilon_o.$ As we move farther from the origin, In the $epsilon-delta$ definition of continuity. delta is decreasing for a given $epsilon$. I am not able to prove formally.
