.


You start from this compound inequality


    -9 < 8x + 7 <= 13.


Subtract 7 from both sides and combine like terms.  You will get


    -16 < 8x < 6.


Divide by 8 both sides


    -2  < x <=  = .


It is your ANSWER:  the solution set is  -2 < x <= .

                    In the interval form,  (-2,).

Solved, answered and explained.   //   And completed.
