  1. Section 1.2 & 9.1 Symbols and Sets of Numbers Compound Inequalities

  2. Symbols and Sets of Numbers • Identify natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers, and real numbers. • Find the intersection of two sets. • Find the union of two sets. Section 1.2 & 9.1

  3. Intersection and Union of Sets • Set • A collection of elements separated by commas and enclosed in {braces}. • {2, 4, 6, 8} • The empty set is the set containing no elements. • Represented by the symbol Ø Section 1.2 & 9.1

  4. Natural Numbers • The natural numbers make up the set of all counting numbers. • Which of the following are natural numbers? • -7 • 0 • 28 • 6.2 • ¾ infinity braces indicate set etc. Section 1.2 & 9.1

  5. Whole Numbers • The whole numbers make up the set of natural numbers, plus zero. • Which of the following are whole numbers? • 13 • 0 • -3 • 2/3 • 6,127 Section 1.2 & 9.1

  6. Integers • The integers are made up of the whole numbers and the negatives of all the natural numbers. • Which of the following are integers? • 5.2 • 5 • -2 • 2/5 • 0 Section 1.2 & 9.1

  7. Rational Numbers • The rational numbers make up the set of all numbers that can be written as a fraction of integers. • In decimal form, rational numbers either terminate or repeat. • Which of the following are rational numbers? • 2/7 • -12 • 0/5 • .137 • -.64 Section 1.2 & 9.1

  8. Fractions Containing Zero • 0/number = 0 • Try in Calculator • number/0 = undefined • Try in Calculator Section 1.2 & 9.1

  9. Irrational Numbers • The irrational numbers are all numbers that cannot be written as a fraction of integers. • In decimal form, irrational numbers never terminate or repeat. • Which of the following are irrational numbers? • .272727… • 6.01364… • .378 • √2 • π Section 1.2 & 9.1

  10. Intersection and Union of Sets • Venn Diagram • A diagram used to depict collections of sets and represent their relationships. Section 1.2 & 9.1

  11. Intersection and Union of Sets • Intersection of Two Sets • The set containing only the elements that appear in both sets. • Represented by the symbol . • Union of Two Sets • The set containing all the elements found in either set. • Represented by the symbol . Section 1.2 & 9.1
