|6c-1|=0

6c-1 = 0


6c=1


c=1/6


For absolute value, you also have to consider the negative of what's inside the bars, because |x| = x if x is positive, and -x if x is negative.


-(6c-1) = 0


-6c +1 = 0


-6c=-1


c = 1/6


When the absolute value is = 0, the solution will always be the same, because the graph of |ac+y| is a v that meets at y=0
