You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x-7%3C=x%3C=-5
This is two combined inequalities.


x-7%3C=x
But x cannot be isolated.
x-7-x%3C=x-x
-7%3C=0--------this part true for all x.


x%3C=-5------nothing more to do on this part. Just as stated.


You want the solution parts which are true for BOTH parts.
The solutions that are common to both is that highlight%28x%3C=-5%29.
