The interval notation [-1,12) is equivalent to saying -1≤1x<12.

Step-by-step explanation

a way of writing subsets of the real number lines is by using intervals,

let's chec

A) closed interval

this includes the endpoints


\lbrack a,b\rbrack

it means a and b are part of the interval, we use the closed brackets

B)open interval

this interval is one that does not include its endpoints


(a,b)

it means a and b are not part of the interval

C) combinatios


\begin{gathered} (a,b\rbrack \\ \lbrack a,b) \end{gathered}

so, we have the interval


\lbrack-1,12)

it means -1 is part of the set and 12 is not part of the set

as -1 is part of the interval, we need the number equal or greater than -1
