The pie must stay for 60 - x more minutes must the pie bake
<h3>For how many more minutes must the pie bake?</h3>
Let the amount of time spent in the oven be x
So, we have
Total amount of time = 60 minutes
This means that
Remaining time + Amount of time spent = 60
This gives
Remaining time + x = 60
Evaluate
Remaining time = 60 - x
Hence, the pie must stay for 60 - x more minutes must the pie bake

Answer:
|x-5|=2
Step-by-step explanation:
1- Find the mid value between the given numbers 3 and 7
(3+7)/2= 10/2 = 5
2- Find the difference btween the mid value (5) and any of the two given numbers (3 or 7). Use the absolute value for the difference.
|5-3|= 2 or |7-5|=2
3- Arrange the absolute equation like this:
|x-mid value from step 1|= absolute difference from step 2
|x-5|=2
4- Double check the answer with the given values 3 and 7 using our equation |x-5|=2
|3-5|=2 correct
|7-5|=2 correct
The absolute value returns the "positive version" of a number.
In other words, if the number is positive, it remains positive; if the number is negative, it changes sign.
So, if we want , we want the "positive version" of x to be 9.
This can happen in two ways: if x is already 9, then its absolute value is still nine. If instead x=-9, its positive value will be 9 again.
In formula, we have
because
