SOLUTION:


\begin{gathered} -1\text{ }\ge2x+5 \\ -1-5\text{ }\ge2x \\ -6\ge2x \\ or \\ 2x\leq-6 \\ x\leq-3 \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} 7\ge2x+5 \\ 7-5\ge2x \\ 2\ge2x \\ or\text{ } \\ 2x\leq2 \\ x\leq1 \end{gathered}

These are the solutions of the two given inequalities.


\begin{gathered} (-\infty,-3\rbrack\text{ }\cap\text{ (-}\infty,\text{ 1\rbrack} \\ (-\infty,\text{ -3\rbrack} \end{gathered}
