First, disregard the sign for absolute value and solve for x. 

2x - 1 = 3x + 5
2x - 3x = 5 + 1
-x = 6
x = -6

Now, you have to interpret the absolute value. The absolute value of x is always the positive version of whatever the number is. Since x = -6, its absolute value is 6. Therefore, the possible value for x is only one, which is 6.

Answer:

y = 6 when x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate formula for this direct proportion is y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

We know y = 3 when x = 9:  3 = k(9)

This yields k = 3/9, or k = 1/3

Then the formula is y = (1/3)x

and when x = 18, y = (1/3)(18) = 6

y = 6 when x = 18
