At 5 a.m. the temperature was reported to be –2°F in Nashville, Tennessee, and 60°F in Naples, Florida. How many degrees warmer was it in Naples than in Nashville that morning? To find the difference between the two temperatures, find the absolute value of each and add them together.

yomomalikebracobama:

axie so you know how to do dis

yomomalikebracobama:

or not

axie:

I do

axie:

So absolute values, its the number that counts right? so it would be |60|+|-2| or 60+2, what is the answer?

maxlord:

58

axie:

60+2=??

yomomalikebracobama:

62

maxlord:

oh i thought it was subtracting 62

axie:

No, the absolute value removes the negative from the two, when you put |x| meaning that x is a number, its only the number that matters, anything attached to it is removed. Example:|-34|=34

maxlord:

oh ok thank u @akie

axie:

Yup!
