Here, we see <em>|</em><em />x+6<em>|</em><em /> = 2.
Oh wow! A foreign object!
|x+6|... two lines... what is that?
That is called absolute value. Whatever is inside the two lines, must have a positive answer!
Let's pretend we have a machine that has this absolute value function activated.
What we put in, we must get a positive answer out.
Let's put in -6.
-6 ==> BEEP BEEP ==> 6
Let's try 3.
3 ==> BEEP BEEP ==>3
Whatever we put in, if it is negative or positive, what comes out is always positive.
So, for how many values <em>x</em> is |x+6|=-2 true?
None, because the answer <em>must</em><em /> be positive!
-2 is not positive, <em>2</em><em /> is.

Answer:
Difference is 14,787 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Mt. Whitney = 14,505 ft above sea level
sea level = 0 ft
Death Valley = below sea leve
14505 - (-282) = 14787 ft

Step 1: Let a = b.
Step 2: Then a^2 = ab ,
Step 3: a^2 + a^2 = a^2 + ab ,
Step 4: 2a^2=a^2 + ab,
Step 5: 2a^2 - 2ab = a^2 + ab - 2ab,
Step 6: and 2a^2 - 2a^b = a^2 + ab - 2ab .
Step 7: This can be written as 2(a^2 - ab) = 1(a^2 - ab) ,
Step 8: and cancelling the (a^2 - ab) from both sides gives 1 = 2.</span>
