To evaluate the integral 

\[
\int_{2}^{5} \frac{1}{\sqrt{6t + 7}} \, dt
\]

we can proceed with a substitution to simplify the integrand.

### Step-by-Step Solution

1. **Substitution**: Let \( u = 6t + 7 \).
   
   Then, \( \frac{du}{dt} = 6 \), so \( dt = \frac{du}{6} \).

2. **Change of Limits**:
   - When \( t = 2 \): \( u = 6(2) + 7 = 12 + 7 = 19 \).
   - When \( t = 5 \): \( u = 6(5) + 7 = 30 + 7 = 37 \).

   Thus, the integral becomes:

   \[
   \int_{19}^{37} \frac{1}{\sqrt{u}} \cdot \frac{1}{6} \, du = \frac{1}{6} \int_{19}^{37} u^{-\frac{1}{2}} \, du
   \]

3. **Integrate**:
   - The integral of \( u^{-\frac{1}{2}} \) is \( 2u^{\frac{1}{2}} \).
   
   So,

   \[
   \frac{1}{6} \int_{19}^{37} u^{-\frac{1}{2}} \, du = \frac{1}{6} \left[ 2u^{\frac{1}{2}} \right]_{19}^{37}
   \]

   Simplify further:

   \[
   = \frac{1}{6} \cdot 2 \left[ \sqrt{37} - \sqrt{19} \right] = \frac{1}{3} \left( \sqrt{37} - \sqrt{19} \right)
   \]

4. **Final Answer**:

   \[
   \int_{2}^{5} \frac{1}{\sqrt{6t + 7}} \, dt = \frac{1}{3} \left( \sqrt{37} - \sqrt{19} \right)
   \]

This is the exact answer. If you need a decimal approximation, you can calculate:

\[
\approx \frac{1}{3} (6.08 - 4.36) \approx \frac{1}{3} \times 1.72 \approx 0.573
\]
