Numbers the same distance from zero (linearly) have the same "absolute value" whether positive or negative.
Opposite numbers.
Absolute value
For two numbers to be equidistant from zero, one must be the negative of the other. As one is the negative of the other, it is the additive inverse of that number. The sum of an number and its additive inverse is zero.
A number line has negative numbers to the left of zero, and -3.5 is a distance of 3.5 to the left.
The distance from zero.
Numbers the same distance from zero (linearly) have the same "absolute value" whether positive or negative.
the number from zero (the distance) is called incounting numbers
Opposite numbers.

Absolute value
Negative and Positive numbers. Ex. -4 & 4 are the same distance from zero which is 4.
The only number whose absolute value is zero is zero. This is because a number's absolute value is its distance from zero on the number line.
The question is incomplete. There is an if clause but no then clause.
+4 -4 They are opposites

It's 6
