Learning Outcomes:
To state the properties of real numbers such as closure, commutative, associative, distributive, identity and inverse under addition and multiplication
11
Number Line
Real numbers can be represented geometrically by points on a straight line, called a real number line.
A point called the origin is chosen to represent 0. Points to the right of the origin represent positive numbers and points to the left represent negative
numbers.

For example,
1 3 5 , 2 4 4

Closure property: For real numbers a and b, = , where (* denotes any of the four operations) Commutative property: For real numbers a and b,
+ = + and =
Associative property: For real numbers a, b, and c, + + = + + and = Distributive property: For real numbers a and b, + = + and = Identity property: For real numbers 0 and 1, + = + = and = = where a is a real number Inverse property: For real number a, + = + = and
= where

To understand open, closed and half-open intervals and their representations on the number line. To understand that the endpoints of an open interval on the number line are usually represented as empty circles, whereas the endpoints of a closed interval are represented by dense circle. To simplify union and intersection of two or more intervals with the aid of a number line.
17
INTERVALS
a is equal to b, written as a = b a is greater than b, written as a > b a is less than b, written as a < b
18
19
FINITE INTERVALS
If a and b are real numbers such that a < b, then the set of all real numbers x satisfying
a < x < b is called the open interval from a to b a < x < b is called the closed interval from a to b a < x < b is called the half-open (or half-closed) interval from a to b
INTERVAL NOTATION
21
a<x<b
(a, b)
open interval
a<x<b
[a, b]
closed interval
a<x<b
(a, b]
half-open
a<x<b
[a, b)
half-open
Notes: Point a and b are called endpoints of the interval. Endpoint for open interval on the number line are represented as empty circle. Endpoint for close interval on the number line are represented as dense circle.
22
INFINITE INTERVAL
If a is a real number, then the set of all real numbers x satisfying the conditions : x<a x<a x>a x>a is called an infinite interval.
23
24
The union of sets A and B denoted by is the set of all elements which belong to A or to B.
26
CONCLUSION
An Interval is all the numbers between two given numbers. Showing if the beginning and end number are included is important There are three main ways to show intervals: Inequalities, The Number Line and Interval Notation.
