Answer

$3\leq f \leq 9$ The graph is shown below.

Work Step by Step

The given inequality is $\Rightarrow 4|f-6|\leq 12$ Divide each side by $4$. $\Rightarrow \frac{4|f-6|}{4}\leq \frac{12}{4}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow |f-6|\leq 3$ Write a compound inequality. $\Rightarrow f-6\leq 3$ and $f-6\geq -3$ Add $6$ to each side. $\Rightarrow f-6+6\leq 3+6$ and $f-6+6\geq -3+6$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow f\leq 9$ and $f\geq 3$ Hence, the solution is $3\leq f \leq 9$.
