Answer: C
|x+5| = 7 (Spilt into 2 problems)
X+5=7
X+5=-7
Solve for x on both
x=2 and x=-12
The answer is 4
So the ratio would be 12/4
Then u simplify into 4/1 ( I divided each number by 4)
We know that the number's opposite is 5. In this context, the opposite means the negative of the given number. Since the number's opposite is 5, the number itself must be -5. This is consistent with the second piece of information, since the absolute value of a number is its distance to 0 and the absolute value of -5 is 5.

Answer:
-37
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
74 + 2x = 0
Solving
74 + 2x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-74' to each side of the equation.
74 + -74 + 2x = 0 + -74
Combine like terms: 74 + -74 = 0
0 + 2x = 0 + -74
2x = 0 + -74
Combine like terms: 0 + -74 = -74
2x = -74
Divide each side by '2'.
x = -37
Simplifying
x = -37
