You can put this solution on YOUR website! How can you solve the inequality
----
abs(x+3)>abs(x-4)
-----
Plot x = -3 and x = 4 on a number line
---
Find the solution set in each of the three intervals.
---
If x = -10 you get: -x-3 > 4-x ; no solutions in x < -3
--
If x = 0 you get: 3 > 4 ; no solutions in (-3,4)
---
If x = 10 you get: x+3 > x-4 ; 3 > 4 : x >= 4
=====================
Solution: x >= 4
