Uniform convergence of distribution functions

Problem

Let continuous increasing F_n on [a,b] converge pointwise to continuous F, and suppose F_n(x) decreases in n for every x. Prove convergence is uniform.

Hint

In “Uniform convergence of distribution functions,” first rewrite the requested conclusion using the sup-norm error.
