No, positive numbers do not always have a higher absolute value than negative numbers. The absolute value of a negative number is equal to its positive equivalent. For example, the absolute value of -3 and 3 is both 3.
perhapsAnother AnswerThis is not true. Every positive number is equal to its absolute value. Every negative number will be smaller than its absolute value.
300. Numbers only change when put in absolute value if they are negative. The absolute value just takes the positive number of all positive and negative numbers.
No. That is only true for non-negative numbers. The value of a negative number, such as -3 , is negative 3. But its absolute value is 3.
This is not strictly true, because an absolute value, and hence the product of two absolute values can be zero. It is, therefore true to say that the product of two absolute values is always non-negative. An absolute value of a number is, by definition, non-negative. And by the definition of multiplication, the product of two non-negative numbers in non-negative.
