Interval Notation Calculator

Interval Notation Calculator:

Interval Notation Calculator is used to compute the number line of closed and open intervals based on the inequality of the numbers. This interval notation calculator computes the open, semi-open, semi-close, and close intervals in a fraction of a second.

Interval notation is a procedure for composing subsets of the real number line. It utilizes brackets and parentheses to portray the number arrangement that fulfills a specific condition. 

How to use our Interval Notation Calculator:

Here are the steps to calculate the interval notation of the function. Utilizing our calculator is direct and offers two principal change types: 

1: From inequality to interval notation.

2: From interval notation to inequality.

1. Inequality to interval notation

Pick inequality Type:  Select from the dropdown list, which includes one-sided, two-sided, and compound inequality.

One-sided inequality: 

Enter the bound and pick the inequality sign (e.g., <, >).

Two-Sided inequality: 

Give the lower and upper limits, and select the inequality sign.

Compound inequality: 

Pick the first inequality from the drop list, then the compound operator (e.g., AND, OR), then the second inequality, and afterward give the upper and lower bound.

2. Interval notation to inequality:

Pick Interval type: 

Select the interval type from the dropdown list (open, closed, half-open, infinite).

Enter bounds: 

Give the lower and upper bounds as required.

By following these steps, our calculator will give you the correct and efficient result

How to compute Interval Notation?

To figure out how to compute the Interval Notation, follow the below examples 

Example 1:

Convert inequality to interval notation

Solution:

Inequality:

Interval: [1,6)

In words: x is in between 1 and 6, including 1 but not 6.

Example 2:

Convert compound inequality  to interval notation

Solution:

Inequality: x3 or x<8

Interval: (-,3](-,8) 

In words: x is less then or equal to x or x is less than 8

Example 3:

Convert interval  [7,9)  to inequality

Inequality:

Interval: [7,9)

In words: x is between 7 and 9, including 7 and not including 9

FAQs

What is the difference between parenthesis and brackets and what are the types of intervals?

1. Parenthesis ( ): Demonstrate that the endpoints are excluded from the interval.

2. Brackets [ ]: Demonstrate that the endpoints are included within the interval.

3. Types of interval: Intervals can be ordered into a few kinds, each with explicit qualities: 

• Open interval (a, b): Contains all numbers among a and b, however not a or b 
• Closed interval [a, b]: Contains all numbers among a and b, including a and b
• Half-Open interval (a, b] or [a, b): Contains all numbers among a and b, including one endpoint but not the other
• Endless interval: These intervals expand endlessly in one or both directions, for example, (- ∞, b), (a, ∞), or (- ∞, ∞).

Might I at any point use the calculator for an infinite interval?

Indeed, our calculator upholds an infinite interval. Pick the interval type as infinite and enter the bounds (utilizing ∞ or - ∞).

Is interval notation appropriate for instructive purposes?

Totally! The calculator is intended to upgrade learning by giving moment input and the right arrangements, making it a significant instrument for the two understudies and instructors.
