Answer:
x = ± 7
|-7|-2=5
|7|-2=5
± means positive or negative
Step-by-step explanation:
|x|-2=5
Get x by itself by adding 2 to both sides.
x - 2 + 2= 5 + 2
-2 + 2 cancels out
x = 5 + 2
x = 7
Absolute value is how far a number is from 0.
x can be either positive or negative.

To calculate percentage increase, use the following method:
First, Work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.
Increase = New Number - Original Number
Now, divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
% increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100.
Also, If your answer is a negative number it is a percentage decrease.
To calculate percentage decrease, use this method:
First, Work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing.
Decrease = Original Number - New Number
Then, divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
% Decrease = Decrease ÷ Original Number × 100
Also, If your answer is a negative number then it is a percentage increase.
<span>If you wish to calculate the percentage increase or decrease of several numbers then I recommend using the first formula. Positive values indicate a percentage increase whereas negative values indicate percentage decrease.</span>
