Interval Notation
[a,b]: A closed interval consists of all real x such that a  x  b
(a,b) : An open interval consists of all real x such that a  x  b
[a,b) :
(a,b]

A half-open or half-closed interval consists
of all real x such that
[a,) : The interval x  a
(,a] : The interval x  a



a x b
a x b
(a,) : The interval x  a


(,a): The interval x  a

Interval Notation

graph on a number line.
1) 2  x  4
2) 3  x  8
3) x  1
4) x  5
