I would think Theresa and Shirley did not qualify for the state championship since they fell below the State Qualifying distance.
Let x = State Qualifying Distance and y = a track members long jump length relative to state qualifying distance
Note: the State Qualifying distance is the zero
[tex]y \geq 0 [/tex] indicates a qualifier
[tex]y \ \textless \ 0[/tex] indicates a non-qualifier
