please help https://us-static.z-dn.net/files/d21/e6c22192500ce1607c354186cd7ee421.png the question is on the image

minustempo:

So interval notation is with ( and [ where ( is exclusive and [ is inclusive. Like (1,2) is between 1 and 2 exclusive. [1,2] is between 1 and 2 inclusive. (1,2] is between 1 and 2, 1 exclusive 2 inclusive.

minustempo:

So where are the values on the graph positive?

QueenMidnight16:

arent they both?

minustempo:

Well, at the point (6,0) you see that the graph goes from above 0 to below 0 (from positive to negative)

QueenMidnight16:

so 6,0 is the negative?

minustempo:

no no here (6,0) is the point. The values are positive when x is less than 6 and negative when x is greater than 6.

QueenMidnight16:

ah, so 0,3 is the negative right

minustempo:

No here (0,3) is also a point

minustempo:

you can use -infinity and +infinity here

QueenMidnight16:

sorry im confused i dont know how to do this

minustempo:

It's okay so the positive interval is (-infinity, 6) and with inifinity you always use exclusive It's that because everything from all the way to the left (-infinity) to 6, is above the x-axis, which means it's positive

minustempo:

using this logic can you do the negative interval?

QueenMidnight16:

ah i think i see now thank you

minustempo:

Great

minustempo:

good job
