To solve inequalities like this one you need to divide it into two equations.
One equation is
t-4>5
The other equation is
t-4<6
You then need to solve both of these equations
t-4>5
+4>+4 add four to both sides which will not change the inequality sign
t > 9
Then you want to solve the other equation
t-4<6
+4<+4 again you add four to both sides which will not change the inequality sign
t < 10
Now you put these two equations back together
9 < t < 10
Which is then your complete answer. To plot this number on a number line it would be anything between 9 and 10
