I would like to continue the numbering of equations that I have in my paper in the Appendix section. Right now, the equations are numbered (A.1), (A.2), .... I would like them to appear as a continuation of the equation numbered in my previous sections in the paper.
\appendix\newpage\markboth{Appendix}{Appendix}
\renewcommand{\thesection}{\Alph{section}}
\numberwithin{equation}{section}
\section{Appendix}
\label{Appendix}
\subsection{Proofs}
\label{proofs}
\noindent {\it Proof of Lemma 1}. Consider Case 1
\begin{align}
x = 1 + y,\label{eqn:40}
\end{align}\\
and
\begin{align}
m = bx -c.\label{eqn:41}
\end{align}\\ $\blacksquare$\\
Instead of being labeled (40) and (41) the equations appear as (A.1) and (A.2) How do I change that?
\numberwithin{equation}{section}as you don't wantequations to be "numbered within"sections. – Werner Jan 23 '21 at 07:01{\it Proof of Lemma 1}with\textit{Proof of Lemma 1}. – Mico Jan 23 '21 at 07:29
