Convert to Interval Notation x<-3

Problem

x<−3

Solution

1. Identify the inequality symbol, which is < This indicates that the value −3 is not included in the set.

2. Determine the direction of the inequality. Since x is less than −3 the interval extends infinitely to the left.

3. Represent the left bound as negative infinity, denoted by −∞

4. Represent the right bound as −3

5. Apply parentheses to both bounds, as infinity always uses a parenthesis and the "less than" symbol indicates an open interval.

Final Answer

x<−3⇒(−∞,−3)
