If x is negative, | x | = − x
 
If x is negative, | x | = − x

I see what you're saying...I think the working just needs to be changed.  |-x| = x but if you declare before hand that x is negative to begin with then |x| is negative, but if you say it equals x, x is still assumed negative.  Let's just reword the whole thing, shall we? --[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|talk]]) 20:48, 14 April 2016 (EDT)

:How about simply:
 +
:<math>|x| = x</math> 
 +
:<math>|-x| = x</math>
 +
 
 +
or even show all the signs:
 +
:<math>|+x| = +x</math> 
 +
:<math>|-x| = +x</math>
