To solve the inequality \( |-4x + 2| \leq 1 \), we can break it down into two separate inequalities: 1. \( -4x + 2 \leq 1 \) 2. \( -4x + 2 \geq -1 \) For the first inequality: \[ -4x + 2 \leq 1 \implies -4x \leq -1 \implies x \geq \frac{1}{4} \] For the second inequality: \[ -4x + 2 \geq -1 \implies -4x \geq -3 \implies x \leq \frac{3}{4} \] Combining these two results gives us the interval: \[ \frac{1}{4} \leq x \leq \frac{3}{4} \] In interval notation, the solution set is: \[ \left[\frac{1}{4}, \frac{3}{4}\right] \] So, the correct choice is: A. The solution set is \(\left[\frac{1}{4}, \frac{3}{4}\right]\).
