Answer: Infinitely many solutions (ie set of all real numbers)

====================================================

Explanation:

First we subtract 7 from both sides

|x - 14| + 7 > 4

|x - 14| + 7-7 > 4-7

|x - 14| > -3

Recall that absolute value is never negative. So the |x-14| will never dip below zero.

In other words, the smallest |x-14| can possibly get is 0.

Because 0 > -3 is always true, this means |x − 14| > -3 is always true for any x value you pick.

Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions. The x value can be any real number.
