Theorem 6.15 (Heine-Borel Theorem). Let A be a subset of Rstd. Then A is compact if and only if A is closed and bounded.
Percentage
A percentage is a number indicated as a fraction of 100. It is a dimensionless number often expressed using the symbol %.
Algebraic Expressions
In mathematics, an algebraic expression consists of constant(s), variable(s), and mathematical operators. It is made up of terms.
Numbers
Numbers are some measures used for counting. They can be compared one with another to know its position in the number line and determine which one is greater or lesser than the other.
Subtraction
Before we begin to understand the subtraction of algebraic expressions, we need to list out a few things that form the basis of algebra.
Addition
Before we begin to understand the addition of algebraic expressions, we need to list out a few things that form the basis of algebra.

![The next theorem completely characterizes the sets in \(\mathbb{R}_{\text{std}}\) that are compact. This theorem, known as the Heine-Borel Theorem, is one of the fundamental theorems about the topology of the line.
Recall a set \(A\) in \(\mathbb{R}^1\) is **bounded** if and only if there is a number \(M\) such that \(A \subset [-M, M]\).
**Theorem 6.15 (Heine-Borel Theorem).** Let \(A\) be a subset of \(\mathbb{R}_{\text{std}}\). Then \(A\) is compact if and only if \(A\) is closed and bounded.
**Theorem 6.17.** Every compact subset \(C\) of \(\mathbb{R}\) contains a maximum in the set \(C\), i.e., there is an \(m \in C\) such that for any \(x \in C\), \(x \leq m\).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F56be79ad-be6a-45f1-b897-58d23fd7e62d%2F3f71b0e3-a513-4627-bb5d-bc985e49b53d%2Frue647j_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
