Do you know what all the symbols mean

hope210 · Answer

Yea kind of.I get them mixed up sometimes

anonymous · Answer

∩ means you want what is in common

anonymous · Answer

{x | x < -3} 

this is: the set of elements x such that x is less than -3

anonymous · Answer

x < -3 and x > 5

What is a number that satisfies both?

triciaal · Answer

can you show x less than -3 on the number line?
can you show x greater than 5 on the same number line?
the "n" means the intersection as in where they overlap. Do you have any values of x in the "overlap"?
