Compound inequalities

Life rarely hands you one condition at a time: a ride needs a height between two limits, a flight leaves inside a time window. Compound inequalities handle two conditions at once, joined by "and" or by "or".

In this topic

  • Two conditions, one variable
  • "And" means overlap
  • "Or" means union
  • The three-part shorthand
  • Worked example: solving a chain
  • Worked example: an "or" compound
  • Worked example: a height requirement
  • Common mistakes to avoid
