You can put this solution on YOUR website!
It's clear you used the "/7" even if it didn't show in your try.
You computed OK, the inequality is false, so x=2 does not satisfy this inequality.
You could simplify first:
2x/7 > 5
2x > 35
x > 17.5
Then answer a bunch of such questions immediately, including x = 2.
