i.e. (-8,16) this interval is the solution
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thanks
OpenStudy (haseeb96):
there will be two solution for this
x-4 =12 and x-4=-12
x=12+4 and x=-12+4
x=16 and x=-8
OpenStudy (haseeb96):
this is the correct answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the sign is less then, not equal. @Haseeb96 abd @chosenmatt
