Answer

$x\leq-4\ \ $ or $\ \ x\geq 4$

Work Step by Step

There are two intervals here On the left is an interval containing all numbers less or equal to $-4$ (note the solid circle indicating inclusion of the endpoint $-4$). On the right, we have all numbers greater or equal to 4 (note the solid circle indicating inclusion of the endpoint 4 ) A number x from this set can belong to either of the above intervals, so the set shown in the graph can be written using inequalities as $x\leq-4$ or $x\geq 4$.
