Absolute Value
Absolute Value
means ...
... only how far a number is from zero:
<span>
<span><span>
</span>
<span>
<span>
"6" is 6 away from zero,
and "−6" is also 6 away from zero.
So the absolute value of 6 is 6,
and the absolute value of −6 is also 6 </span>
</span>
</span></span>
More Examples:
<span><span>The absolute value of −9 is 9</span><span>The absolute value of 3 is 3</span><span>The absolute value of 0 is 0</span><span>The absolute value of −156 is 156</span></span>
No Negatives!
So in practice "absolute value" means to remove any negative
sign in front of a number, and to think of all numbers as positive (or
zero).
Absolute Value Symbol
To show that we want the absolute value of something, we put
"|" marks either side (they are called "bars" and are found on the right
side of a keyboard), like these examples:
<span>
<span><span>
|−5| = 5
|7| = 7
</span>
</span></span>
Sometimes absolute value is also written as "abs()", so abs(−1) = 1 is the same as <span>|−1| = 1</span>
Answer: The answer is attached in the figure.
Step-by-step explanation: Given are four different graphs and we are to check which one matches with the equation y = 2 - x.
We have the following points on this equation.
(0,2), (1,1), (2,0), etc.
When we try to match these points with the given graphs, the we see that these points does not match with the first, third and fourth graph. The only graph containing these points is second one.
Thus, the second option is correct. Also see the attached figure for the location of the three mentioned points.

Answer:
219,000
Step-by-step explanation:
How many 6 hour periods are in a day?
24 divided by 6 is 4.
150 times 4 equals 600
finally 600 times 365 equals 219,000 planes a year
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the set
This set consists of four ordered pairs.
The first numbers in these pairs are These numbers are integer numbers (not natural, because -3 is negative).
The second numbers in these pairs are These numbers are integer numbers too (not natural, because -2 is negative).
Options contain only natural and real sets, so, the first and the second numbers are real numbers and
