Answer

Final Answer: The solution to the compound inequality is \(-2 < x \leq 0.8571428571428571\), which can be written in interval notation as \(\boxed{(-2, 0.8571428571428571]}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The given inequality is a compound inequality. It can be solved by isolating the variable 'x' in the middle. This can be done by subtracting 5 from all parts of the inequality and then dividing all parts by 7.

Step 2 :The inequality after isolating 'x' is \(-2 < x \leq 0.8571428571428571\). This can be written in interval notation as \((-2, 0.8571428571428571]\).

Step 3 :Final Answer: The solution to the compound inequality is \(-2 < x \leq 0.8571428571428571\), which can be written in interval notation as \(\boxed{(-2, 0.8571428571428571]}\).
