The graph shows a number line with two open circles, one at $-7$ and another at $7$. The line is shaded between these two points, indicating that the values of $x$ are between $-7$ and $7$, but do not include $-7$ and $7$ themselves.

To express this range as an absolute value inequality:

$|x| < 7$

This inequality states that the distance of $x$ from 0 is less than 7, which matches the shaded region on the graph between $-7$ and $7$ (excluding $-7$ and $7$ themselves).

Would you like more details or have any other questions?

Here are five related questions you might find interesting:

1. How would the inequality change if the circles were filled in at $-7$ and $7$?
2. What would the inequality look like if the range was outside of $-7$ and $7$?
3. Can you express this inequality as two separate inequalities without using absolute value?
4. How would you graph the inequality $|x - 3| \leq 5$ on a number line?
5. What is the general form of an absolute value inequality, and how do you interpret it on a graph?

Tip: When solving absolute value inequalities, always consider the two possible cases (positive and negative) that arise from the definition of absolute value.
