The bars mean absolute value so they just turn everything positive. So you have |2x|=|8| once you move everything to its respective side, then you divide by 2 and get |x|=|4|. Now you can drop the absolute value bars because everything is already positive. So your final answer is x=4.

Step-by-step explanation:

One side = 210

other side = 105

a2+b2 = c2

210 ^2 + 105 ^2 = c2

$18.11 because 20.75/x=100/15
(120.75/x)*x=(100/15)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
120.75=6.6666666666667*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.6666666666667) to get x
120.75/6.6666666666667=x 
18.1125=x 
x=18.1125
