If |2x - 5| < 7, which of the following represents the possible range of x?

A x < 6
B -1 < x < 6
C x > -1
D -6 < x < 1

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

To solve |2x - 5| < 7, set up the inequality -7 < 2x - 5 < 7. Add 5 to all parts: -2 < 2x < 12. Divide by 2: -1 < x < 6. This defines the range of possible values for x.
