What is set and interval notation?
Interval notation is a way of writing subsets of the real number line . A closed interval is one that includes its endpoints: for example, the set {x | −3≤x≤1} .
How do you write an interval as an inequality?
An inequality that includes the boundary point indicated by the “or equal” part of the symbols ≤ ≤ and ≥ ≥ and a closed dot on the number line. The symbol (∞) indicates the interval is unbounded to the right. Express ordering relationships using the symbol < for “less than” and > for “greater than.”

What is empty set give an example?
Any Set that does not contain any element is called the empty or null or void set. The symbol used to represent an empty set is – {} or φ. Examples: Let A = {x : 9 < x < 10, x is a natural number} will be a null set because there is NO natural number between numbers 9 and 10.
What are the types of set?
Types of a Set
- Finite Set. A set which contains a definite number of elements is called a finite set.
- Infinite Set. A set which contains infinite number of elements is called an infinite set.
- Subset.
- Proper Subset.
- Universal Set.
- Empty Set or Null Set.
- Singleton Set or Unit Set.
- Equal Set.
What is the example of Singleton set?
A singleton set is a set containing exactly one element. For example, {a}, {∅}, and { {a} } are all singleton sets (the lone member of { {a} } is {a}). The cardinality or size of a set is the number of elements it contains.
