I was given the following instructions:

e. Append to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable:
${ORACLE_HOME}/lib
f. Append to the PATH variable:
${ORACLE_HOME}/bin
How do I accomplish this using Unix commands. This is a part of the preinstallation procedures.

The ":" is the delimiter. The {} just delimiters just avoid confusion over where the variable's name starts and ends.
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:${ORACLE_HOME}/lib
PATH=$PATH:${ORACLE_HOME}/bin
