Use vertical pipes around the value. 
Example:
abs(-4) = |-4| = 4
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:  Slope: -1/2  
Step-by-step explanation:  To find slope take 2 points that lie on the line and use this formula to solve:  <em> </em>I will use (0, -2) and (2, -3) to solve
                                                                        ↑    ↑           ↑   ↑ 
y2 - y1                                                             x1  y1          x2  y2
-----------
x2 - x1
So, for this question, substitute the x and y values from the points above to solve.
-3 - (-2)       
----------- =  - 1/2
 2 - 0
Hope this helped. :)

Answer:
30 oranges
Step-by-step explanation:
2 apples : 5 oranges
12 apples : 30 oranges
because 12 apples is 6 times the original ratio, so we multiply the 5 oranges by 6 too.
