To solve a compound inequality, we need to proceed as if it were a simple inequality but this time we need to make the operations to both parts of the expression, this way:


\begin{gathered} 2\le x+6<6 \\ 2-6\le x+6-6<6-6 \\ -4\le x<0 \end{gathered}

It means that the set of solutions is:


\lbrack-4,0)

In the number line, it would be:
