Expert Solution

Step 1: CODE:

LaTeX is a typesetting system widely used for typesetting mathematical and scientific documents. To type math in LaTeX, you can use the following syntax:

Enclose mathematical expressions in dollar signs: $ expression $. For example: $x + y = z$
Enclose mathematical expressions in double dollar signs: $expression$ for display mode. For example:

CODE:

$\int_{a}^{b} f(x)\, dx$

You can also use LaTeX commands to format mathematical expressions, such as:

Greek letters, e.g. $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$
Fractions, e.g. $\frac{a}{b}$
Roots, e.g. $\sqrt{x}$
Summations, e.g. $\sum_{i=1}^{n} x_i$

For a comprehensive list of LaTeX commands and symbols, you can refer to the LaTeX wikibook (https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Mathematics).
