first step is to isolate the absolute value by adding 8 to each side

|6x-7| >= 11

now separate into 2 equations a positive and a negative (remembering to flip the inequality symbol for the negative)

6x-7>=11 6x-7<=-11

add 7 to each side

6x>=18 6x<=-4

divide by 6

x>=3 x<=-4/6

-2/3 >= x or 3<=x

Answer:


x \le -(2)/(3) or
x \ge 3

Explanation:


|6x - 7| - 8 \ge 3


|6x - 7| \ge 11


6x - 7 \le -11 or
6x - 7 \ge 11


6x \le -4 or
6x \ge 18


x \le (-4)/(6) or
x \ge (18)/(6)


x \le -(2)/(3) or
x \ge 3
