What is the absolute value of a negative number?
The absolute value of a number is the distance it is away from zero or in other words, the number will become positive, but if it is already positive, will remain the same.
How is the absolute value of a positive number related to the number?
The absolute value of a number means how far a certain number is from zero on a number line. so a negative is always positive because it is not possible to be a negative amount away from zero
Why do you get a positive number when you take the absolute value of a negative number?
Basically, the absolute value of a number is its distance from zero... so that distance would be 5, whether you are talking about positive 5 or negative 5, right? So, if you just ignore positive and negative for a specific number, you will have its absolute value.
True or false The absolute value of every integer is positive?
true because if it is an absolute integer it cant be negative and 0 is nor a negative number or positive. so it would always be positive. Example- l-7l its absolute value would be 7, or l4l its absolute value would be 4.
Is the sum of two integers positive or negative?
If for the two integers a + b = c, a is larger than zero and b is larger than the absolute value of the first number, then c is always positive. If a is smaller than zero, and b is larger than the absolute value of the second number, then c is positive. If a is smaller than zero, and b is smaller than the absolute value of the second number, then c is negative.
