Question

How do you write the following in interval notation: `x >2` OR `5<x`?

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

The interval notation for `x > 2` is `(2, +oo)`

The interval notation for `5 < x` is the same as `x > 5` which is `(5, +oo)`

The OR indicates a union of the two sets which results in:

`(2, +oo) uu (5, +oo) => (2, +oo)`
