y=|-1|-1 I need answers....(:

Y=0

Okay, the l's that surround that negative one means that any number inside there is going to be positive. So now that means it is 1 -1, which equals 0. Understand?

Oh! okay! thank you(:

What if in the |'s was 0.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that just means it's positive. So doesn't really mean anything, they are just like parenthesis and whatever is inside of them will come out positive.
