An elevation of - 12 m is higher than an elevation of -17 m.
We know that, higher than means greater than and it is represented by the inequality ">". So,
An elevation of - 17 m is lower than an elevation of -14 m.
We know that, lower than means less than and it is represented by the inequality "<". So,
Therefore, the required set of inequalities is and
.
