Answer

$\left[ 1,7 \right]$

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of inequality, the given inequality, $ -1\le6-x\le5 ,$ simplifies to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} -1-6\le6-6-x\le5-6 \\\\ -7\le-x\le-1 \\\\ 7\ge x\ge1 \\\\ 1\le x\le7 .\end{array} Hence, the solution is the interval $ \left[ 1,7 \right] .$
