Hello.

|-8| = 8

As the absolute value of a negative number is its positive value.

Hope I helped.

The absolute value of a number can never be negative. That's because it represents the distance of a number from zero on a number line. The number $-8$ is $8$ digits to the left of zero on a number line. So, the absolute value of $-8$ would be $8$ .

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this problem!

Write the standard form of the equation of the line that passes through point at (4,2) and is parallel to whose equation is y=2x

Since the equation is parallel to y=2x-4 that means they have the same slope. Now that you have the slope and fortunately a point, you can solve this by using point slope formula
$y - y1 = m(x - x1)$
Which is what I did on the attached picture and just rearrange it after solving to Ax+By=C/2x-y=6
