Question

Antwan determines the distance between the points –7 and 2 on a number line. Maggie determines the difference between the numbers –7 and 2. How are Antwan’s and Maggie’s solutions related?
Maggie’s solution is the absolute value of Antwan’s solution.

Antwan’s solution is the absolute value of Maggie’s solution.

Both solutions are greater than either of the two numbers in the problem.

Both solutions are less than either of the two numbers in the problem.

Answer 1

Antawan's solution is the absolute value of Maggie's solution is the solution related to Antawan's and Maggie's solution.

Given

Antawan determines the distance between two points as 9.

Maggie finds the difference between two numbers ₋ 7 ₋ 2 = ₋9

Hence we notice that Antawan's solution is the absolute value to the Maggie's solution.

The non-negative value of x, regardless of its sign, is the absolute value (or modulus) | x | of a real number x. For instance, 5 has an absolute value of 5 and so does 5, which likewise has an absolute value of 5. One way to conceptualize a number's absolute value is as its separation from zero on the real number line.

hence option 2 is right.
