\[1)\ 8x^{2} - 2x - 1 < 0\]
\[D = 4 + 32 = 36\]
\[x_{1} = \frac{2 - 6}{2 \bullet 8} = - 0,25;\]
\[x_{2} = \frac{2 + 6}{2 \bullet 8} = 0,5;\]
\[(x + 0,25)(x - 0,5) < 0\]
\[- 0,25 < x < 0,5.\]
\[Ответ:\ \ x \in ( - 0,25;\ 0,5).\]
\[2)\ 5x^{2} + 7x \leq 0\]
\[(5x + 7) \bullet x \leq 0\]
\[- 1,4 \leq x \leq 0.\]
\[Ответ:\ \ x \in \lbrack - 1,4;\ 0\rbrack.\]
