Table employee:

employeeNumber : int   (primary key)
age            : int
salary         : float

Would an index improve performance for these queries? 

SELECT * FROM USERS ORDER BY age DESC LIMIT 100,200   

(index on age)
SELECT * FROM USERS ORDER BY salary DESC LIMIT 200,300
(index on salary)

Is it OK if the index has duplicate keys (people with
same age or salaries?)

Thanks!
