Solve for x. |x| = 6

hartnn (hartnn):

if |a|= b then a=b or a=-b does this help ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so, then wouldnt the answer be -6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer would be 6 or -6, since |-6| is still 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thanks

hartnn (hartnn):

there will be two answers x= 6 or x= -6 because |6|=6 and also |-6|=6
