The graph of the solution should look like the one provided. If you read out the expression it says, " The absolute value of x is greater than 5". The absolute value of any negative number is positive. For example:

|-2| = 2

or

|-16| = 16

and so on

This means that for the statement to be true, x cannot equal the numbers between -5 and 5. That is what this graph should represent.

I hope this helped! Have an amazing day :))
