A is always
From what I have B and C are never because one will always end up negative while the other is positive.

A).  |x| = |-x|
This is always true.
The definition of 'absolute' value is 'size of the number without its sign'.
That's what this expression says.

b).  |x| = -|x|
This is never true, because an absolute value is never negative.
This one would true if x=0 .  So maybe some people might say
it's sometimes true, but that doesn't feel right to me.  I say never.

c).  |-x| = -|x|
This looks to me like exactly the same situation as (b),
and I would say all the same things about it.
