Explanation

a way of writing subsets of the real number lines is by using intervals,

let's chec

A) closed interval

this includes the endpoints

[tex]\lbrack a,b\rbrack[/tex]

it means a and b are part of the interval, we use the closed brackets

B)open interval

this interval is one that does not include its endpoints

[tex](a,b)[/tex]

it means a and b are not part of the interval

C) combinatios

[tex]\begin{gathered} (a,b\rbrack \\ \lbrack a,b) \end{gathered}[/tex]

so, we have the interval

[tex]\lbrack-1,12)[/tex]

it means -1 is part of the set and 12 is not part of the set

as -1 is part of the interval, we need the number equal or greater than -1
