The absolute value of a number will never be negative because absolute value is the distance from zero, so it will always be positive. For example, you can't be -6 away from 0, you are 6 away from 0.
+ 3x + 5

+ 6x + 5
-----------------------------------------
4x - 3 + 0
The answer is simple to work out you do 3/8 + 1/3
but the denominators are different so you find the lowest common multiple in this case 24 .
the frection is now 9/24 + 8/24 this is 17/24
I changed the fraction by doing this 24(common multiple) divided by 8 (denominator) that's how I got it if you don't understand just ask me
The next term in the sequence will be increased by 27.
The difference between 15 and 34 is 19
The difference between 34 and 55 is 21
The difference between 55 and 78 is 23
The difference between 78 and 103 is 25
Following this pattern, the next number will be 130
