The absolute value of BOTH of those numbers is ' 1 '.
==========================================
Oh ! Wait just a second. Did you mean for the 1 and the -1 to be combined
in some way ? If that's what you had in mind, then you'll have to be more
specific. "And" is no mathematical operation that I know of.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numerator of the fraction=x
Since the denominator of a fraction is two more than the numerator.
Denominator=x+2
The fraction is therefore:

If both numerator and denominator are decreased by six, the fraction becomes:

The simplified result is 
Therefore:

Substituting x=40 into the initial fraction

Therefore, the original fraction is 
Answer:
x=11/5, or x=2.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
9-3(x+4)=2(x-3)-8
9-3x-12=2x-6-8
9-12-3x=2x-14
-3-3x=2x-14
-3-3x-2x=-14
-3-5x=-14
5x=-3-(-14)
5x=-3+14
5x=11
x=11/5
x=2.2
