What is the difference between delta E and delta U?

I'm pretty sure they're interchangeable.

Yes, delta E and delta U are both used to represent internal energy.

They both represent change in internal energy. I think deltaU is used a lot in lecture and in the textbook, but deltaE is on the constants sheet

both delta e and delta u represent the change in internal energy, and i think on the constant sheet it is also used interchangeably

Delta E is the change in energy and it can be used interchangeably for the change in internal energy.

They represent the same thing and can be used interchangeably. They both represent the change in internal energy of a system.

Delta E and Delta U both represent the change in internal energy in a system. Both values are equal to the Final Energy of the System-Initial Energy of the System.

Does delta E always represent the change in internal energy? doesn't e just represent energy?

Both delta E and delta U are used as notations for internal energy. You can interchange them
