Assuming "range" is used in the normal Englsih sense, and not the mathematical meaning for the possible value of a function.

If we limit ourselves to real numbers, then
-4<=x<=4 for x^2-16>0

hello : 
x²-16 >0   ...   x² >16
√x² > √16       but : √16 = 4  and √x² = |x | 
conclusion : 
|x | > 4 
the range is : x < 4  or x >  4
