If x= -4, what’s the value of |x|?

Ultrilliam:

It is asking for the absolute value of that number. Absolute value means it will take the negative number there and make it a positive number (but not vice-versa) Since x is a stand-in for a variable it is asking for the absolute value of -4. With that said, what do you think the answer is?

KyLyPie:

Probably 4!

Ultrilliam:

Yep!

KyLyPie:

Thanks !!

Ultrilliam:

No problem!
