This is AoPS homework.  You should not cheat on your homework.

i'm assuming you already know how to do this and this was just to do for fun, so I'll do them! :)

 

for number 1, i got

\(2x - 5 \le -x +12\)

\(3x-5\le12\)

\(3x\le17 \)

\(x\le\frac{17}{3}\)

\(\boxed{(-\infty, \dfrac{17}{3}]}\)

 

for number 2, i got

\(-4(x+4)>x+7\)

\(-4x-16>x+7\)

\(-4x>x+23\)

\(-5x>23\)

\(x<-\frac{23}{5}\)

\(\boxed{(-\infty,-\dfrac{23}{5})}\)

 

 

let me know if i got these right! :D
