9: |x| = -87
no solution. Absolute value can't equal a negative number.
7: |x + 11 - 9| - 3 = 23
|x + 11 - 9| = 26
|x + 2| = 26
x + 2 = 26 AND x + 2 = -26
x = 24 AND x = -28
10: |5 + x| + 5 = 25
|5 + x| = 20
5 + x = 20 AND 5 + x = -20
x = 15 AND x = -25
11: 3|x - 2| = 9
|x - 2| = 3
x - 2 = 3 AND x - 2 = -3
x = 5 AND x = -1

9. {x| no solution} because the result of taking an absolute value is always non-negative
7. |x + 11 - 9| - 3 = 23
|x + 2| - 3 = 23
|x + 2| = 26
x+2=26 or x+2=-26
x=24 or x=-28
so, {x| -28, 24}
0. |5 + x| + 5 = 25
|5 + x| = 20
5+x=20 or 5+x=-20
x=15 or x=-25
So, {x| -25, 15}
11. 3|x - 2| = 9
|x - 2| = 3
x-2=3 or x-2=-3
x=5 or x=-1
So, {x| -1, 5}
