Answer:

x = 12

Explanation:

Absolute value is the distance between the number and 0. Since distance cannot be negative, the absolute value of something is always going to be positive. In this equation | x | = 12 since 12 is already a postive number and the distance between 12 and 0 is 12, this means that x is equal to 12.

Hope This Helps :)
