Answer: If i am correct the answer should be 9-10 because if it is -8 it takes 8 to bring it to 0 and it takes 9 to bring it to 1 and it takes 10 to bring it to 2.
We know that the number's opposite is 5. In this context, the opposite means the negative of the given number. Since the number's opposite is 5, the number itself must be -5. This is consistent with the second piece of information, since the absolute value of a number is its distance to 0 and the absolute value of -5 is 5.
