Answer:

[tex]-1 < x < 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving all terms to one side, we get [tex]x^2-5x-6 < 0[/tex]. Notice that we can factor the left side. Doing so, we get [tex](x-6)(x+1) < 0[/tex]. The zeroes in this equation are [tex]x-6=0 \Rightarrow x=6[/tex] and [tex]x+1=0\Rightarrow x=-1[/tex]. Now, we must create test points in the intervals: [tex]x < -1, -1 < x < 6, x > 6[/tex]. For example, we can choose [tex]x=-2,x=0,x=7[/tex]. For [tex]x=-2[/tex], we get that [tex](-2-6)(-2+1) = 8 < 0[/tex] is false, since the expression is positive. Doing the same thing for [tex]x=0[/tex] and [tex]x=7[/tex], we get that only [tex]x=0[/tex] creates a negative value. This means that the values in the interval [tex]\boxed{-1 < x < 6}[/tex] all work.
