Solve. –3|s| = 18

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

–3|s| = 18 divide both side by 3 |s| = 6 so either s=6 or s=-6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no... divide both sides by -3 => |s| = -6, but |s| >= 0 always!

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, divide by -3 so it is no solution, since absolute value can't be equal to a negative number. Sorry, @pgpilot326.
