Answer

$-11\leq x \leq 17$ The graph is shown below.

Work Step by Step

The given inequality is $\Rightarrow |x-3|\leq 14$ Write a compound inequality. $\Rightarrow x-3\leq 14$ and $x-3\geq -14$ Add $3$ to each side. $\Rightarrow x-3+3\leq 14+3$ and $x-3+3\geq -14+3$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow x\leq 17$ and $x\geq -11$ Hence, the solution is $-11\leq x \leq 17$.
