yes but x can be a negative number...you just take the absolute value of it which is positive.
OpenStudy (igreen):
@myininaya Yes, but it's not an Option.
myininaya (myininaya):

OpenStudy (igreen):
That's -1, @myininaya

Just got the results back I failed this question cuz the answer was D and C not just D
geerky42 (geerky42):
Absolute value turns all negative number into positive, doesn't do anything if number is already positive.
