The absolute value of a number is how many spaces the number is away from 0. So if the number was 32, the absolute value would be 32. And if the number was -54, then the absolute value would be 54. ========== The definition of "absolute value" for a number x (written as |x| ) is: |x| = x for x >0 |x| = 0 for x=0 |x| = -x for x<0
No. The absolute value is non-negative but, to be pedantic, that does not mean positive. The absolute value of 0 is 0 which is NOT positive.
it is the distance from 0 on a number line. the absolute value of something is never negative
The absolute value of 21 is 21.
Numerical value = absolute value For any real number a, the absolute value of a, denoted by |a| is itself if a ≥ 0, and -a if a < 0. Thus |a| is positive expect when a = 0.
