Anything in absolute value signs like this |-1| is positive so it would be positive 1 instead of negative. For instead question one is -1. Hope this helps you!
There is a 1 out of 12, you could have a white shirt and blue pants and on and on with them all
The midpoint is: (-4.5,8.5)
Find common denominators. 10 is the common denominator. Multiply 2 to numerator and denominator of -3/5
(-3/5)(2/2) = -6/10
x + 1/10 = -6/10
Isolate the x. Subtract 1/10 from both sides
x + 1/10 (-1/10) = -6/10 (-1/10)
x = -6/10 - 1/10
x = -7/10
-7/10 is your answer for x
hope this helps
