Absolute Value means the distance from 0, and so you should solve the equation with the number inside the Absolute Value lines as a positive and then solve again as a negative.
To solve equations with absolute values in them, square the absolute value and then take the square root. This works because the square of a negative number is positive, and the square root of that square is the abosolute value of the original number.
Because the solutions are found on the x axis when y is zero.
An absolute value can never be a negative. An absolute value is just the distance the # is from the zero...so again for it to be negative thats not possible
