Answer:

Here are the answers in fraction form.


x > (1.7)/(0.7)


x < - (11.7)/(0.7)

Here are the answers in decimal form.


x > 2.43


x < -16.71

Explanation:

We will have 2 answers.

Answer 1


0.7x+5 > 6.7

Move all terms not containing
x to the right side of the inequality.


0.7x > 6.7-5\\0.7x > 1.7

Divide both sides by
0.7.


(0.7x)/(0.7) > (1.7)/(0.7)\\


x > (1.7)/(0.7)


x > 2.43

Answer 2


-0.7x-5 > 6.7

Move all terms not containing
x to the right side of the inequality.


-0.7x > 6.7+5\\-0.7x > 11.7

Divide both sides by
-0.7.

When multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative value, flip the direction of the inequality sign.


(-0.7x)/(-0.7) < (11.7)/(-0.7)


x < (11.7)/(-0.7)


x < -16.71
