Answer:

The correct answer is A. x < 9/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x in the inequality given this way:

7(x - 2) < -5

Solving the parentheses:

7x - 14 < -5

Adding 14 at both sides:

7x - 14 + 14 < -5 + 14

7x  < 9

Diving by 7 at both sides:

7x/7 < 9/7

x < 9/7

The correct answer is A. x < 9/7
