Consider the case
.
means the distance between
and
is less than
units.
Hence the solution is in between
and
.
Consider the case
.
means the distance between
and
is greater than
units.
Hence the solution is outside of
and
.
Observe the graph:
\The graph has one terminal of the line graph containing dot at
.
Other terminal of the line graph containing dot at
.
The solutions are between
and
but
and
are included in the solution set.
Therefore the absolute function :
\
.
.
The absolute function is
.
The inequality is
