============================
You want the points that satisfy both conditions.
--------------
h<1: From the point "1" draw an arrow to the left.
h>-5: From the point "-5" draw an arrow to the right.
-------------
Your solution is the segment where the two arrows overlap;
the segment -5<=x<=1
Every point in that overlapping segment satisfies both conditions.
=====================
