In a certain temperature, x in degrees Celsius on a certain day is described by two statements:

1. If 3 times the temperature is increased by 2, the temperature is still less than 14 degrees Celsius.

2. Twice the temperature minus 7 is greater than -11 degrees Celsius.

Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the temperature range.

Part B: Can the temperature in this town be 5 degrees Celsius? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in part A.
