Which statement is true? A. |–9| < 0 B. |–9| > 0 C. –|9| > 0 D. –|–9| > 0 will medal and fan
@iGreen.
The absolute value signs make the terms positive.
|-9| = 9 A. 9 < 0 B. 9 > 0 C. -9 > 0 D. -9 > 0 These are all 4 options..tell me which you think is correct.
d
No..-9 isn't greater than 0..it's less than 0
> = grater than < = less than
-|9|>0?
Yes, but the negative sign is OUTSIDE the parenthesis, therefore 9 is negative.
OUTSIDE the absolute value sign*
-|9| 9 is inside the brackets, so 9 is going to be positive: -(9) Now there is a negative sign outside of it, so it is -9.
And -9 isn't greater than 0, so D is incorrect.

NO
C is the same as D, it says -9 is greater than 0..
And it IS NOT.
C and D are both incorrect.
ohhh sorry lol
A
*facepalm* Is 9 less than 0?
A. |–9| < 0
its -9
A. |–9| < 0 B. |–9| > 0 C. –|9| > 0 D. –|–9| > 0
No, it's not..the absolute value signs make it 9... |-9| = 9 The negative sign is INSIDE the parenthesis, so this is equal to 9. -|9| = -9 The negative sign is OUTSIDE the parenthesis, so this is equal to -9.
A is INCORRECT.
Do you understand?
