ok i i evaluate the expression |15-4|
would this be the answer -4
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
-4, why?
subtract 15-4 inside the absolute value
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i meant to put 11
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-11
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
Yes, it is 11.
In this case it is positive even without the absolute value.
