Which of the following correctly uses absolute value to show the distance between −50 and 12? (5 points)
|−50 − 12| = |−62| = −62 units
|−50 + 12| = |−38| = 38 units
|−50 + 12| = |−38| = −38 units
|−50 − 12| = |−62| = 62 units

Each question is different and this is 5 in 5 minutesish. You WILL NOT LEARN this way

It is the the positive number of any pair of opposite non zero numbers.
OpenStudy (openstudygirl2):
