Math Problem Statement
Write F ∩ H and F ∪ H using interval notation, where F = {z | z ≤ 4} and H = {z | z < 5}.
Solution
Given the image, we have the sets and defined as:
We are required to find the intersection () and the union () of these sets using interval notation.
1. Intersection ():
- Set can be expressed in interval notation as .
- Set can be expressed in interval notation as .
The intersection of these intervals is the overlap:
2. Union ():
- The union of these intervals combines all the values from both sets without duplication.
Since already covers , the union is:
