Answer 1

I think it's A but this is a 6 point question so I don't want to slip up, lol.

Answer 2

We can go through them all if you want.
Let's start with D.
Why do you think that isn't the right choice?

Answer 3

It's not in order?

Answer 4

right because |-10|=10 and -|-7|=-7
and 10 is not smaller than -7

Answer 5

what about C?

Answer 6

-10 is smaller than -7 though

Answer 7

yep but those weren't the numbers

Answer 8

D: |–10|, –|–7|, 3, |–9|
translates to
D: 10,-7,3,9

Answer 9

10 is definitely not smaller than -7

Answer 10

|–10| is a normal 10?

Answer 11

|-10| is just 10

Answer 12

|10| is also just 10

Answer 13

-|10|=-10
-|-10|=-10

Answer 14

Oh oHhHhh

Answer 15

but we had |-10|=10

Answer 16

That cleared up a lot in another question lol. Anyways, C could be an answer

Answer 17

C: –|3|, |–2|, 0, 5
this translates to
C: -3,2,0,5

is 2 smaller than 0?

Answer 18

Answer 19

so C and D is definitely not the choice

Answer 20
