Adequate to, up to (7)

I believe the answer is:

capable

I believe this is a double definition.

'adequate to' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'up to' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for capable that I've seen before include "Of a person, competent" , "Able, proficient" , "Able, competent" , "qualified" , "accomplished" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
