Assuming: number of coins Andrew has=a, number of coins Bob has=b, number of coins Casey has=c
Andrew has six fewer coins than Casey, so, c-6=a, or a+6=c
Bob has two more than twice as many coins as Andrew, so 2a+2=b
Together, there are 544 coins: a+b+c=544. Rewrite the equation in terms of a: a+(2a+2)+(a+6)=544. Combine like terms: 4a+8=544. Solve the equation: 4a=536, so a=134. If b=2a+2, then b=2(134)+2=268+2=270.
Bob has 270 coins.

Absolute value of 100​
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the absolute of a number as the distance from that number to zero on the number line. The distance from 100 to 0 on the number line is 100, so absolute value of 100 is 100. Notice that -100 is also at a distance of 100 from zero, so |-100| = 100.

|100| = 100
