According to the site Math Planet, 'A compound inequality contains at least two inequalities that are separated by either "and" or "or".'
In the case of "and", a compound inequality such as
x > -1 and x < 2
can also be written as:
-1 < x < 2
(I also took this example from Math Planet.)
There is no such shortcut for the "or" case.

What is a math inequality?
An inequality is when a variable and its coeefecient is greater than something. For example, 5x is greater than 2.

What is expression in math terms?
It is a collection of terms which are combined using various mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multipplication, division, power, inverse, trigonometric functions etc. It does not have an equality of inequality relationship - which would make it an equation or inequality.

Which compound inequality is graphed on the number line?
Any compound inequality, in one variable, can be graphed on the number line.
Is an inequality the same thing as a compound inequality?
A compound inequality would be a combination of two or more inequalities, combined with AND or with OR. This can be implied, as in 2 < x < 5, which means: 2 < x AND x < 5.

What is the difference between a compound inequality using the word and and compound inequality using the word or?
The difference between them is that when solving an "and" inequality you are comparing two inequalities and when you are solving an "or" inequality you dont compare, you only use one inequality example of "and" . 2<x+3<7 example of "or" . 4<d or m<1

How can you tell what kind of compound inequality an absolute value inequality will represent?
If the absolute value inequality is of the form where the absolute value of the difference between a variable (X) and some constant (a) is compared to another constant (b) eg |X - a| compared with b, then if the comparison is < or ≤, the compound inequality is a double inequality of the form c < X < d (or ≤), and if the comparison is > or ≥, the compound inequality is a disjoint inequality of the form X < c or X > d (or including the equals). In both cases, c = b - a, d = b + a (>c)
