that is
3x - 6 > 3 => x > 3
or 3x- 6 < -3 => x < 3/3 or 1

It's absolute value. In this case it's an inequality. Take 3x-6 > 3 and solve for x. But absolute value also constitutes a negative, meaning now take 3x-6 < -3 and solve because you need to make the product negative AND since it's an inequality you switch the sign. Clear enough?

|3x - 6| > 3
3|x - 2| > 3
|x - 2| > 1
x - 2 > 1 or x - 2 < -1
x > 3 or x < 1
{x Ñ R | x < 1 or x > 3}

3x-6>3 ------x>3
3x-6<-3--------x<1
so x<1 or x>3
