Whoops. You posted your exercise at the end of somebody else's discussion. In the future, please use the New Topic button to start your own thread.
Here is what you need to know, in order to get started.
The inequality: |expression| >= number
written without absolute value symbols requires two new inequalities:
expression >= number
expression <= -number
EG:
|7A - 2| >= 45
Remove the absolute value symbols by writing two new inequalities:
7A - 2 >= 45
7A - 2 <= -45
Now, solve each of these, in the usual way.
