When the number is non-positive.
I would do it that way.
X and Y have the same absolute value because the opposite of a number doesn't change its distance from zero. The absolute value of a number represents its distance from zero on the number line, and since X and Y are opposites, they have the same distance from zero.
The absolute value of a number is always positive or zero, while its opposite is always negative or zero. The relationship between the absolute value of a number and its opposite is that they have the same numerical value but opposite signs. For example, the absolute value of -5 is 5, and the opposite of 5 is -5.
Yes it is and the absolute value is always a positive number. if it was the absolute number then the opposite, then its always a negative number. I learned this and im in the sixth grade advanced classes. * * * * * The absolute value need not always be positive - it can be 0. The absolute value need not be an integer. Rational and irrational fractions are perfectly valid.
