B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no B can be false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2 is less than -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all of them are technically false lol

How though omg. This is so hard ugh

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

the answer is B absolute value is asking for the magnitude of the number and not the direction |-2| = 2 so the inequality is 2 > 1 yes... A |-8|< |8| is really 8 < 8 no C |-7| = -7 or 7 = -7 no D |12|>|-15| is really 12 > 15 no so the answer has to be B
