Interval Notation Explained - The Basics You NEED to Know!

Today, we're covering how to express a solution in interval notation, which is common when solving an inequality.
The interval notation has a few components - parenthesis, brackets, and the number (or infinity), separated by a comma. Parenthesis are used when the inequality symbol has either a "less than" or "greater than" sign, which is represented with an open circle on a number line, indicating that the number itself is not included. A bracket is used when the symbol is "greater than or equal to," or "less than or equal to." Infinity will always have a parenthesis, since we cannot include it - it is a concept, not an actual number.
We'll review several examples you need to know, including the union of two sets, represented by a "U," which joins two sets together, as well as the intersection, represented by an upside down "U," which only looks for the overlap between sets.

    Oh ok so the parenthesis are used when the inequality symbol has either a greater than or less than sign

    Oh ! Infinity is a concept not an actual number ! I didn’t know ! So you always have to use a parenthesis ok.

    Use parenthesis and continue on with a “U” for union. For example, if x ≠ 3, then it would be (-♾️, 3) U (3, ♾️). This is saying you’ve included everything from negative to positive infinity except the 3 (due to the parenthesis around the 3, signifying you are not including the 3).
