#a=b#

Explanation:

I assume that the case of the variables in your question can be ignored. (e.g. #a=A)#

Here we have two inequalities: #x>=a and x<=b#

I interpret your question to be asking us to find a condition relating #a and b# such that #x# can be the set of all real numbers: #x in (-oo,+oo)#

If you consider #a and b# to be two points on the real line then the only situation where both inequalities are satisfied with #x in (-oo,+oo)# is when #a and b# are coincident - have the same value on the real line.

Hence our condition relating #a and b# is #a=b#
