The Discovery: Compound Limits

"The Varsity football team requires players to be at least 14 years old but no older than 18 years old."

1. If $x$ is the age, and it must be 14 or higher, which inequality works? (Circle one)

x ≥ 14 x ≤ 14

2. If it must be 18 or lower, which works? (Circle one)

x ≤ 18 x > 18

3. A "Compound" inequality puts them together. Look at the number line. Shade between 14 and 18!
