Which statement is true? A. |–12| = –12 B. |–4| < 3 C. |–5| > 0 D. |–8| < |8|
Do you know what the absolute value means?
Yes, I think the answer is D.
Thats wrong ^_^
Then A.
that -8 is converted into positive 8 making it equal =
Again A is wrong because -12 is converted into positive 12 and your saying 12 = -12
It would be C.
@flowercrownmgc What is |-12| = ?
12
You are correct Flower ^_^ answer is C
Good. Then look at A. |–12| = –12 12 = -12 is false, so A cannot be it.
I get it. thank you! (^.^)
B. |–4| < 3 Since |-4| = 4, we have: 4 < 3 This is false.
C. |–5| > 0 5 > 0 True
MAth I already explained it all :/
D. |–8| < |8| 8 < 8 False
The only true statement is C.
