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

Step-by-step explanation:
Sample Response: No, the triangle is not possible. The triangle inequality rule states the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side. 6 + 4 is 10, which is less than 11.
The longer sides of the rectangles should be the same value, so we can make the lower part of the equation equal to 18, which is 4.
We can even find the y value by making it equal to 10, which is 3.
