You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Start with the given inequality

Break up the absolute value (remember, if you have , then and )

and Break up the absolute value inequality using the given rule

Combine the two inequalities to get a compound inequality

Answer:

So our answer is

So the answer in interval notation is []

Also, the answer in set-builder notation is

Here's the graph of the solution set on a number line:

Graph of the solution set

Note:
There is a closed circle at which means that we're including this value in the solution set
