I do have problem, please help
Absolute numbers /
|(x-4)/3|-2 > 4
---
|(x-4)/3}| > 6
----
(x-4)/3 < -6 or (x-4)/3 > 6
------
x-4 < -18 or x-4 > 18
---
x < -14 or x > 22
==============================
Draw a number line.
Put an open circle at -14 and at 22.
-----------------------------
Draw a ray to the left from -14.
Draw a ray to the right from 22.
====================================
