The solution

You have entered [src]
-|-x| = -1
$$- \left|{- x}\right| = -1$$
Detail solution
For every modulo expressions in the equation
allow cases, when this expressions ">=0" or "<0",
solve the resulting equation.

1.
$$x \geq 0$$
or
$$0 \leq x \wedge x < \infty$$
we get the equation
$$1 - x = 0$$
after simplifying we get
$$1 - x = 0$$
the solution in this interval:
$$x_{1} = 1$$

2.
$$x < 0$$
or
$$-\infty < x \wedge x < 0$$
we get the equation
$$1 - - x = 0$$
after simplifying we get
$$x + 1 = 0$$
the solution in this interval:
$$x_{2} = -1$$


The final answer:
$$x_{1} = 1$$
$$x_{2} = -1$$
