Absolute value is a number's distance away from 0. So, all answers are positive. -4/25 is 4/25's away from 0, so your answer is -4/25. To clarify: if you have the absolute value of ANY number, it will always be the positive version of itself.
Asnwer: C

Answer:
Correct choice is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Two vertices of the rectangle have coordinates A(-1, 5) and B(2, 1). If rectangle sides are parallel to the axes, then two remaining vertices have coordinates C(-1,1) and D(2,5) (see attached diagram for details).
Find the length and the width:

Then the length is 1 unit longer than the width.
X + 2(x + 4) = 32
3x + 8 = 32
3x = 24
x = 8
The lengths of the sides are 8, 12 and 12 (answer),
The value of a is -6
The value of b is 48
