To solve the inequality -2x + 5 > 7, we need to isolate the variable x.

First, subtract 5 from both sides of the inequality:
-2x + 5 - 5 > 7 - 5
-2x > 2

Next, divide both sides by -2. However, we need to flip the inequality sign because we are dividing by a negative number:
-2x / -2 < 2 / -2
x < -1

Therefore, the solution for -2x + 5 > 7 is x < -1.
