Evaluate - |5| + |-5| A. -10 B. -5 C. 0 D. This problem cannot be solved. I'm thinking the answer is D?? Because normally with these problems the answer have to be positive. And there is no positive answer. So is it D?

I think the answer is -5. If the "-" after Evaluate is a negative sign then it is B.

|-a| = a thats what |....| do, make a negative number as positive, so |-5| =... ?
