Solve the inequality. Then graph the solution set.
| 4x - 8 | > 12
4x - 8 < -12 or 4x - 8 > 12
-----
4x < -4 or 4x > 20
x < -1 or x > 5
-------

----
To graph the solution set:
1st: Draw a number line
2nd: Plot the points x = -1 and x = 5.
3rd: Draw an arrow extending to the left from x = -1, not including x = -1
Draw an arrow extending to the right from x = 5, not including x = 5.
