Break down the problem into these two equations;
x = -31
-x = -31
Solve for the 1st equation; x = -31
x = -31
Solve for the 2nd equation; -x = -31
x = 31
Collect all solutions
x = ±31
Check the solution
When x = -31, the original equation; |x| = -31 does not hold true. Thus, we will drop x = -31 from the solution set.
Check the solution again;
When x = 31, the original equation |x| = -31 does not hold true as well. Thus we will drop x = 31 from the solution set.
Therefore,
<u>No solution exists to this equation. </u>
Answer:
A proportional relationship between a quantity y and a quantity x that has a constant of proportionality k is represented by the equation y = kx.

Is 37% Ran to hide then 63% refuse to hide
63/2520= 37/X
63x= 93240
Divide by 63
X= 1480 Ran to hide
2520+1480=4,000 total --------------
