We have two ways of displaying math: inline and display.
We either use display or inline depending on where we want to display our math notation.
Inline Math
To display inline math, we put our markdown between single dollar signs $...$.
For example, this is an example of inline math: .
$2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 2 \times 6$
We often use inline math when we want to display math notation in line with our text.
Some examples may include: writing or -intercept.
Display Math
In display math, the math is more centered and larger than inline.
It is often intended when displaying math that is more likely to be important or intended to grab your attention, which can be formulae or large math expressions
It is done by writing math inside double dollar signs $$...$$.
$$ 2^4 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 $$
They can also be used to typeset much complex expressions like matrices, systems of equations, or even table of values using environments.
Unlike inline math, it can also span multiple lines and still display normally.
