Final answer:

The equation is simplified to x = 6y + 6, which suggests that x can take any real number as its value, thus the interval notation for x is (-∞, +∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation provided in the question appears to be: 6y = 1 - (x + 7) + 2x. To find all the values of x in interval notation, we must first simplify and solve the equation for x.

Simplify the right hand side:

  • - (x + 7) + 2x = -x - 7 + 2x
  • = x - 7 (since -x + 2x = x)

Substitute back into the equation:

  • 6y = 1 + (x - 7)
  • 6y = x - 6

Solve for x:

  • x = 6y + 6

Since there is no restriction on y, x can take any real number as its value depending on y. Thus, the interval notation for x is (-∞, +∞), which means all real numbers are possible values for x.
