Step 1: Understand the notation. The interval [1,3) means all numbers from 1 to 3, including 1 but not including 3. The interval (0,4) means all numbers greater than 0 and less than 4, excluding both 0 and 4.
Step 2: Represent each interval on a number line. For [1,3), draw a solid dot at 1 (to indicate inclusion) and an open circle at 3 (to indicate exclusion). For (0,4), draw open circles at both 0 and 4.
Step 3: Identify the intersection ∩ of the two intervals. The intersection represents the set of numbers that are common to both intervals.
Step 4: On the number line, observe where the two intervals overlap. The overlap starts at 1 (included because of [1,3)) and ends at 3 (excluded because of [1,3)).
Step 5: Write the result of the intersection as an interval. The intersection is [1,3), which includes all numbers from 1 to 3, including 1 but not including 3.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Interval Notation

Interval notation is a mathematical notation used to represent a range of values. It uses brackets and parentheses to indicate whether endpoints are included or excluded. For example, [1, 3) means that 1 is included in the interval, while 3 is not, indicating all numbers from 1 up to but not including 3.

Interval Notation

Set Intersection

Set intersection refers to the operation of finding common elements between two sets. The intersection of sets A and B, denoted as A ∩ B, includes only those elements that are present in both sets. In the context of intervals, this means identifying the overlapping range of values that satisfy both conditions.

Graphing Intervals

Graphing intervals involves visually representing the range of values on a number line. Each interval is depicted with a line segment, where closed intervals are marked with solid dots and open intervals with open dots. This visual representation helps in easily identifying overlaps and intersections between different intervals.
