Answer:

Yes! |-15| = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Many people think of absolute value (the two bars symbol around the -15) as ALWAYS POSITIVE.

You can also think of absolute value as a distance. If you move 15 units, it doesn't matter in what direction you go. 15 units travelled is 15 units.

Lastly, absolute value has a V-shaped graph, that is because its always positive.

Yes, the lines on either side of the number -15 mean absolute value. Meaning that whatever number inside of the lines is positive.
