is the positive value of x.

so the question is what is |-x|, it is x. http://www.oojih.com/show/algebra/absolutevalue/

because the absokute value is the always postive becuz its the number away from the starting point so if it was --10000 it would be 10000

definition of absolute value is: |x|=x when x>=0 |x|=-x when x<0 if x=-2, then |x|=-(-2)=2
