Question

Plz someone help me on this too plz plz

Answer 1

1. 7 and -7 are both 7 units away from 0.  They are 14 units away from each other. Absolute value helps because rather than 7+(-7) being 0 absolute value makes anything positive so it becomes 7+7=14 to be able to count the units between the two.

2. 5 and -5 are both 5 units away from 0.  They are 10 units away from each other. Absolute value helps because rather than 5+(-5) being 0 absolute value makes anything positive so it becomes 5+5=10 to be able to count the units between the two.

3. 2 and -2 are both 2 units away from 0.  They are 4 units away from each other. Absolute value helps because rather than 2+(-2) being 0 absolute value makes anything positive so it becomes 2+2=4 to be able to count the units between the two.

Hope that helps
