Answer: Last option.

Explanation:

Given the inequality
|x| > 5 you need to set up two posibilities. These posibilities are the following:

- FIRST POSIBILITY :


x>5

- SECOND POSIBILTY:


x<-5

Then you get that:


x<-5\ or\ x>5

Therefore, through this procedure, you get that the solution set of the inequality
|x| > 5 is this:

{
x|x<-5\ or\ x>5}
