When 1 is added to the difference between six times a number x and 7,we have
%286x-7%29%2B1...first part

the result is greater than 11 added to 5 times the number x
5x%2B11 ...second part
together:
%286x-7%29%2B1%3E5x%2B11 ...solve for x
6x-7%2B1%3E5x%2B11
6x-6%3E5x%2B11
6x-5x%3E6%2B11
x%3E17
so, the solutions are all numbers greater than_17__
