You can put this solution on YOUR website!
0%3C+%28x%2B5%29%2F6+%3C2
First you will solve the problem to see what x is
We will multiply all sides by 6
6*0<%28x%2B5%29%2F6(6)<2*6
Now subtract 5 from all sides
0-5%3Cx%2B5-5%3C12-5
You end with
-5%3Cx%3C7
Now out of those answers which ones make the equation true?
-5%3Cx
x%3C7
