The value of a number, in terms of its distance from zero on a number line, is referred to as its absolute value. This distance is always a non-negative quantity, meaning it is either a positive number or zero. For example, both -3 and 3 have an absolute value of 3, as they are both three units away from zero. Thus, the absolute value effectively measures how far a number is from zero, regardless of its direction on the number line.
Its absolute value (or modulus).
Its absolute value or magnitude or modulus.
Absolute value
it is the distance from 0 on a number line. the absolute value of something is never negative
The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on a number line. |a| means the absolute value of a. Basically, |5| = |-5| = 5; |x| = |-x| = x, etc.
A number's distance from 0 on a number line is called absolute value. The absolute value of 5 is 5 and the absolute value of -5 is also 5.
