Q. Solve for zz.\newlinez4-|z| \leq -4\newline\newlineWrite a compound inequality like 1<x<31 < x < 3 or like x<1x < 1 or x>3x > 3. Use integers, proper fractions, or improper fractions in simplest form.\newline______
  1. Isolate absolute value term: We have the inequality: \newlinez4-|z| \leq -4\newlineFirst, we need to isolate the absolute value term z|z|. To do this, we can multiply both sides of the inequality by 1-1, remembering that this reverses the inequality sign.\newline1(z)1(4)-1 \cdot (-|z|) \geq -1 \cdot (-4)\newlinez4|z| \geq 4
  2. Interpret compound inequality: Now that we have z4|z| \geq 4, we can interpret this as zz being either greater than or equal to 44 or less than or equal to 4-4. This is because the absolute value of zz is the distance from 00 on the number line, and it can be either positive or negative.\newlineSo, the compound inequality is:\newlinez4z \geq 4 or z4z \leq -4
