The answer depends on whether the "opposite" means the multiplicative inverse or the additive inverse.
It's 1000. The absolute value of zero or any positive number is itself, while the absolute value of a negative number is the opposite, or additive inverse.
The opposite of the absolute value of -8 is -8. This assumes that "opposite" refers to additive inverse, although there is no justification for such an assumption.
The additive inverse for a number is its negative value. The sum of an integer and its additive inverse is zero. For the example (5), the additive inverse would be (-5).
The additive inverse of a number is the value that, when added to the original number, results in zero. In this case, the additive inverse of -21 would be 21, as -21 + 21 equals zero. The additive inverse is essentially the negative of the original number, so the additive inverse of -21 is 21.
| -x | = |x|
No. This is because absolute values are always positive. For example: |2|=2 absolute value Additive inverse means the opposite sign of that number so 2's additive inverse is -2. But sometimes if the number is -2 then the additive inverse equals the absolute value. therefore the answer is sometimes

In Real numbers, each is the additive inverse of the other.
the absolute value
Any number (other than 0), and its additive inverse.
It is the number with the same magnitude (absolute value) and the opposite sign.
One example would be a Galois Field size 4 (ie GF(4)). Here, the elements are {0,1,2,3} and every element is its own additive inverse.
They are always non-negative. The absolute values of any number and its additive inverse are the same: that is f(-x) = f(x) for all x.
