I3x+4I The I is absolute value sign. What do I do? Thanks

\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "You have to examine the possibilities:
\n" ); document.write( "If 3x+4 and 2x+4 are both positive your problem becomes:
\n" ); document.write( "(3x+4)/(2x+4) = 2
\n" ); document.write( "3x+4 = 4x+8
\n" ); document.write( "x = -4
\n" ); document.write( "Test this value: |-12+4|/|-8+4|=2
\n" ); document.write( "True
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "If 3x+4 is negative and 2x+4 is positive you get:
\n" ); document.write( "-(3x+4)/(2x+4) = 2
\n" ); document.write( "-3x-4 = 4x+8
\n" ); document.write( "7x = -12
\n" ); document.write( "x = -12/7
\n" ); document.write( "Test this value: |-36/7 + 28/7|/|-24/7 +28/7] = 2
\n" ); document.write( "True
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Final Answer: x=-4 or x = -12/7
