The wording translated to Math is THIS:


    5 <= x-8 <= 14.


"No more than 14" is the same as "less or equal to 14".


"No less than 5" is the same as "greater or equal to 5".


Actually,  after reading your post,  I don't know what  EXACTLY  you want and what help do you need.

One possible task is to translate the words to Math.

The other possible task is to solve inequality.

So please,  in the future,  write exactly in the post  WHAT  YOU  WANT  TO  GET  from the tutors.
