Sample Response: The absolute value of a number is the distance the number is from 0 on a number line. Since distance is never negative, absolute value is never negative.

No. The absolute value of a number is always positive, or zero. The way the absolute value is defined, it can never be negative.No. The absolute value of a number is always positive, or zero.

That's because absolute means 'always positive' so it could never be a negative.
iT IS NEVER NEGATIVE, IT IS ALWAYS POSITIVE
Absolute values are never negative. The opposite, or negative, or additive inverse, of a negative number is the number's absolute value; a non-negative number is its own absolute value. The absolute values of 7 and -5, are, respectively, 7 and 5.
An absolute value can never be a negative. An absolute value is just the distance the # is from the zero...so again for it to be negative thats not possible
it is the distance from 0 on a number line. the absolute value of something is never negative
Because an absolute value can never be negative.
If it had a sign it wouldn't be an absolute value, which is neither positive nor negative, merely absolute.Note that the absolute value of a number is non-negative by definition.For x < 0, |x| = -x (which is positive)For x ≥ 0, |x| = x (which is never negative)

true (that's the whole point of absolute value)
The absolute value of 21 is 21.
