Given:

For the kiddie teacup ride at a carnival a person needs to be over 36 inches and at most 60 inches tall.

To find:

The inequality that describes all the heights that are eligible to ride.

Solution:

Let h represents the heights that are eligible to ride.

For the kiddie teacup ride at a carnival a person needs to be over 36 inches. It means, height should be greater than 36 inches.

[tex]h>36[/tex]       ...(i)

For the kiddie teacup ride at a carnival a person needs to be at most 60 inches tall.

[tex]h\leq 60[/tex]       ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]36<h\leq 60[/tex]

Therefore, the required inequality is [tex]36<h\leq 60[/tex].
