How do you know r can be any number @DanJS?

That is just an expression, there is no equation

\[\left| r+3 \right|\]

without an = sign its just an expression

Answer 6

No, there was no =, that's exactly what it says on my paper. But I'm guessing that it's false, right? aha

Answer 7

Answer 8

if r=3

absolute value of (3+3) is 6, that is not -2 for example
