Let s=number of seeds and t=number of days...
st=120 and (s+10)(t-2)=120
From the first we can say t=120/s, now using this value of t in the second equation gives us:
(s+10)(120/s-2)=120
(s+10)(120-2s)/s=120
(s+10)(120-2s)=120s
120s-2s^2+1200-20s=120s
2s^2+20s-1200=0
s^2+10s-600=0
(s+30)(s-20)=0, since s>0
s=20, and since she planted s+10 seeds per day to finish two days earlier:
20+10=30
She planted 30 seeds per day.

Answer:
The difference in meaning is that
-3 is a signed value. It lies to the left of zero
+3 is also a signed value, and since it is positive, it lies to the right of zero
|-3| is just the physical distance (left or right) of -3 from zero. Since we live in a physical world, all distances are positive, so its signed value is 3.
Since +3 is also 3 units from zero, |+3| = 3
|-3| = |+3| = 3 since both are three units away from zero.
So, when using absolute values as numbers, rather than distances,
|x| = x if x is not negative
|x| = -x if x is negative
