The compound inequality presented is:

$-14 < x < -9$

Steps to graph the inequality:

1. End Points: The inequality is strict, meaning the endpoints $-14$ and $-9$ are not included. Therefore, both will have open circles on the number line.

2. Shading: Since the inequality is between $-14$ and $-9$, the region between these points will be shaded.

How the graph will look on the number line:

• Place an open circle at $-14$.
• Place another open circle at $-9$.
• Shade the portion of the number line between $-14$ and $-9$.

This graph shows that $x$ is any number greater than $-14$
