Question 738179: How do I solve this problem.....|x|<4

With an absolute value inequality set up one inequality for the positive value, and one for the negative. Remember when you divide or multiply by a negative the sign flips.

x<4 is one value.

-x<4 is the other. Divide both sides by -1. Flip the inequality. x>-4

-4 < x < 4
