  • \( (-\infty, -2) \)
  • \( (-\infty, 0) \)
  • \( [-2, 6] \)
  • \( (-2, \infty) \)
  • \( (-2, 4) \)

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Given the inequality \( |x - 2| \leq 4 \), this means: \[ -4 \leq x - 2 \leq 4 \] Adding 2 to all sides: \[ -2 \leq x \leq 6 \] Thus, the interval is \( [-2, 6] \).
