First of all, your inequalities are not written using Mathematica 
syntax (you can't use square brackets in this way). But looking at them 
I see it does not matter whether you use proper syntax or not: no 
computer program will ever solve a system of inequalites involving 
someting like x^(2/(2 - x)). Your only chance is a human brain and some 
fantastic stroke of luck.
Sorry for being so unhelpful.
