Evaluate the following expressions when
a = -2, b = 3, c = -4 and d = -6.
You can use the backslash key to indicate absolute value. \-5\ = 5
You may also have a | symbol that can be accessed by pressing the Shift key and the \ key at the same time.
|-5|=5.

1.|a+b|

2.5|c+b|

3.a+b|c|

4.|a+c|/-d

5. 3|a+d|+b

1 a+b =...?

jack1 · Answer

@andrewj43 
1.
a=-2 and b= 3
so a +b =...?

anonymous · Answer

i have to show the steps

jack1 · Answer

these are the steps:
Q1:
a+b =...?

jack1 · Answer

dude, you there?

anonymous · Answer

yes

jack1 · Answer

sweet, Q1:
a+b =...? if a = -2 and b = +3

anonymous · Answer

it would be 2 +3

jack1 · Answer

no, -2 +3, the absolute value part happens at the end once the equation inside the lines is complete

jack1 · Answer

if it asked |a| + |b| then it would be 2+3

anonymous · Answer

oh so then it would be 1

jack1 · Answer

yep, and its already a positive value, so the |  |  means nothing in this case
so Q1 = 1

jack1 · Answer

Q2.
5 |c + b|
=                         5    |  -4   +   3  |
=...?
