You can put this solution on YOUR website!
it does not appear that this problem has a solution.
see the following graph.
look below the graph for further comments.

$$$

the red line is the equation of y = 3|x-7|+2|1-3x|

the blue line is the equation of y = 5

if there were a solution, the graph of these equations would have intersected.

since they don't, there is no solution.
