You can put this solution on YOUR website!
More likely you mean (x+7)/(x-2)<0.
\n" ); document.write( "Rendering tags make it appear $\"%28x%2B7%29%2F%28x-2%29%3C0\"$ .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Look for where the left expression is negative or less than 0.
\n" ); document.write( "The critical values of x are -7 and +2. The intervals on the x-numberline to check are these:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-infinity%3Cx%3C-7\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-7%3Cx%3C2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%3Cx%3Cinfinity\"$ .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You can pick values inside each interval to check which intervals satisfy and which do not the inequality. \n" ); document.write( "
