'Solve each absolute value inequality and graph the solution set
|x| > 0
------------------
You graph the EQUALITY which is the boundary of the INEQUALITY.
Then you shade the area above or below of inside or outside the
boundary depending on how the INEQUALITY is stated.
----------------
So you graph y = |x| with a dashed line because it is not the solution.
Then you shade the area ABOVE the boundary because you want the y-values
to be GREATER THAN the boundary.
