Answer:

C. Where the points are at 10 and -10.

Explanation:

Simply solve this equation by doing opposite operations to isolate and ultimately find x.


(-24|x|)/(8) =-30

Multiple both sides by 8 to get rid of it.

-24|x|=-240

Now, divide both sides of the equation by -24 to get

|x|=10

x=10, x=-10

Answer:

The 3rd option is the correct answer.

Explanation:

(-24 *|x|)/8= -30

-24*|x|= -30 *8

-24*|x| =-240

|x|= -240/-24

|x| =10

x= 10 or -10
