1.Solve the inequality $2x - 5 \le -x +12$. Give your answer as an interval.
2.Solve the inequality $-4(x + 4) > x + 7.$ Give your answer as an interval.
1.
\(2x - 5 \le -x +12\\ =3x\le17\\ =x\le\frac{17}{3}\\ \boxed{x\in(-\infty,\frac{17}{3}]}\)
2.
\(-4(x+4)>x+7\\ -4x-16>x+7\\ -5x>23\\ 5x<-23\\ x<-\frac{23}{5}\\\ \boxed{x\in(-\infty, -\frac{23}{5})} \)
