Describe, in words, how to write a solution set in interval notation.

Explanation:

The ends of the interval are written as an ordered pair, left end first. The parentheses used are dependent upon whether the end is included in the interval. If not, the corresponding bracket is curved, ( ). If an end value is included in the interval, the corresponding bracket is square, [ ].

Here are some examples:

  -1 < x < 6 . . . . (-1, 6)

  43 ≥ x > 2 . . . (2, 43]

  -6 ≤ x < ∞ . . . . [-6, ∞)

  13 ≤ x ≤ 14 . . . [13, 14]

When infinity (∞) is involved, the bracket is always curved. There is no number that is equal to infinity.

c.

step-by-step explanation:

she should of added 9^2 and 12^2. that is because it is a^2+b^2=c^2. c^2 is the hypotenuse and should always be bigger than the other two numbers. which is why she should of added 9 squared and 12 squared together instead of 15 squared.
