Question

Is there a solution to |x| = -2

Answer 1

There is no solution to the given problem
`|x|=-2`.

Explanation:

Given equation is
`|x|=-2`.

Now we need to determine if there is solution to this equation or not.

We know that
`|x|` represents absolute value function.

By definition of absolute value function, we know that output of
`|x|` must always be positive.

But in given equation
`|x|=-2`, we have output -2 which is negative.

That is not possible.

Hence there is no solution to the given problem
`|x|=-2`.
