Final answer:

The given values of c could all be possible solutions for |x - 9|.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is to determine which of the given values of c could be possible solutions for |x - 9|. The expression |x - 9| represents the absolute value of the difference between x and 9. The absolute value function always produces non-negative values, so any of the given values of c could be possible solutions for |x - 9|.

For example, if we take c = -2, then |c - 9| = |-2 - 9| = |-11| = 11, which is a valid value for |x - 9|.

Similarly, if we take c = -5, c = 7, or c = 1, we will get valid values for |x - 9|.
