2. If a and b are real numbers, , or +, and a < b, then (,) denotes the open interval delimited by a and b. See ] , [for an alternative notation. 3. If a and b are integers, (,) may denote the greatest common divisor of a and b.

What is a Union B formula?
The union of two sets A and B is a set that contains all the elements of A and B and is denoted by A U B (which can be read as "A or B" (or) "A union B"). A union B formula is used to find the union of two sets A and B.
Comprehensive collection of 225+ math symbols used in algebra, categorized by subject and type into tables along with each symbol's name, usage and example.
The union of two sets A and B, denoted A ∪ B, is the set that combines all the elements in A and B. In symbols, ∀x ∈ U [x ∈ A ∪ B ⇔ (x ∈ A ∨ x ∈ B)]. The set difference between two sets A and B, denoted by A − B, is the set of elements that can only be found in A but not in B.

An equation says that two things are equal. It will have an equals sign "=" like this: That equation says: what is on the left (x + 2) is equal to what is on the right (6) So an equation is like a statement "this equals that"
So people can talk about equations, there are namesfor different parts (better than saying "that thingy there"!) Here wehave an equation that says 4x − 7 equals 5, and all its parts: A Variableis a symbol for a number we don't know yet. It is usually a letter like x or y. A number on its own is called a Constant. A Coefficient is a number used to m...
Theexponent (such as the 2 in x2) says how many times to use the value in a multiplication. Exponents make it easier to write and use many multiplications
A polynomial can have constants, variables and the exponents 0,1,2,3,... But it never has division by a variable.
Like Terms are terms whose variables (and their exponents such as the 2 in x2) are the same. In other words, terms that are "like" each other. (Note: the coefficientscan be different)
DEFINITION: Suppose [latex]a[/latex] and [latex]b[/latex] are integers but [latex]a \ne 0[/latex]. We say that [latex]a[/latex] divides [latex]b[/latex] in the notation [latex]{a|b}[/latex] if there exists an integer [latex]c[/latex] such that [latex]b = a\,c[/latex] .
The mean (average) of a set of data is calculated by adding all numbers in the data set and then dividing by the number of values in the set. When the data set is ordered from least to greatest, the median is the middle value.
