What does the absolute value of a number really measure?
Think of it as a distance or radius of a circle. A distance or radius is always positive. That is all absolute value is; a positive value. So, the absolute value of 3 is 3 and the absolute value of -3 is 3.
Are an integer and its absolute value always opposites?
No. The absolute value refers to the distance between a number on the number line and zero. Because it measure the distanceto zero, the absolute value of a number is always positive. So, any integer that is positive will be identical to its absolute value.
Is relative standard deviation an absolute value?
No, as its name suggests, it is a relative measure.
Why the mean absolute deviation is calculated using absolute value?
The absolute value is used in the calculation of mean absolute deviation to eliminate negative differences. By taking the absolute value of each difference, it ensures that all values are positive, allowing for an accurate measure of the average deviation from the mean.
What is the value of relative error if the absolute error is -10?
You need to know the measure in order to answer the question.
