Answer:
-42/7 and 42/-7
Explanation:
The absolute value of a number is represented by:
[tex]|x|[/tex]The lines represent absolute value of a number x, and what it does is that it makes everything into a positive number.
For example |-5|=5 and |5|=5, so we always have two options with an absolute value: that it comes from a negative number or that it comes from a positive number.
In this case we have that a number with an absolute value of 42 (it could be |-42|=42 or |42|=42) divided by a number with an absolute value of 7 (it could be |-7|=7 or |7|=7) the quotient is -6.
One possible numberic equation is:
[tex]\frac{-42}{7}=-6[/tex]Since this meets all the above conditions
Another possible numeric equation is:
[tex]\frac{42}{-7}=-6[/tex]Since this too meets all the above conditions.
