Question

Rewrite each of the following expressions without using absolute value.

Answer 1

Answer:

a) answer is "a"

b) answer is "-2b"

c) answer is "-c"

d) answer is "3c"

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is positive value of something.

a>0 then a must be positive so absolute value means nothing if a is already positive. Therefore answer is a.

b<0, so b must be negative. absolute value makes 2b positive but you know b is negative so answer is -2b.

c<0 same as a except sign is flipped so answer is negative instead of positive.

c>=0, C is either 0 or positive so absolute value does nothing yet again so answer is just 3c.
