First simplify inside the absolute.... \(\huge{-(-6)=?}\)

OpenStudy (tmyrci):

6

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Correct :) \(\huge{|6|=?}\) Now when a number is in absolute value whether it is a positive or negative what will happen to the number?

OpenStudy (tmyrci):

-6?

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Not quite. When a number is in absolute whether it is a positive or negative the number will be a positive... So... \(\huge\color{red}{|6|=6}\)
