​ABSOLUTE VALUE

​Absolute Value means

DISTANCE FROM 0.

​ABSOLUTE VALUE

​The absolute value of 3 and -3 is 3. They are both 3 units aways from 0.

​ABSOLUTE VALUE

​∣ 3 ∣ = 3

​∣ -3 ∣ = 3​

Multiple Choice

Use absolute value to identify the distance between the points H and P and write an equation.

• $$\left|-8\right|\ -\left|-5\right|=3\ units$$

• $$\left(-8\right)-\left(-5\right)=3\ units\$$

• $$\left|-8\right|-\left|-5\right|=-3\ units\$$

• $$\left|-8\right|+\left|-5\right|=12\ units$$

Multiple Choice

Use absolute value to identify the distance between the points M and K and write an equation.

• $$\left|-3\right|\ +\left|4\right|=-7\ units$$

• $$\left|-3\right|-\left|4\right|=-1\ units$$

• $$\left|-3\right|+\left|4\right|=7\ units\$$

• $$\left(-3\right)+\left(4\right)=1\ unit$$

Multiple Choice

Use absolute value to identify the distance between the points M and Y and write an equation.

• $$\left|-6\right|-\left|2\right|=4\ units$$

• $$\left|-6\right|-\left|2\right|=4\ units$$

• $$\left(2\right)-\left(-6\right)=8\ units$$

• $$\left|2\right|+\left|-6\right|=8\ units$$

Multiple Choice

Use absolute value to identify the distance between the points Y and V and write an equation.

• $$\left|-3\right|+\left|4\right|=7\ units$$

• $$\left|-3\right|-\left|4\right|=-1\ units$$

• $$\left(-3\right)+\left(4\right)=7\ units$$

• $$\left|3\right|+\left|4\right|=7\ units$$

Multiple Choice

Use absolute value to identify the distance between the points E and V and write an equation.

• $$6-0=6\ units$$

• $$\left|-6\right|-\left|6\right|=0\ units$$

• $$\left|-6\right|-\left|0\right|=6\ units$$

• $$\left|6\right|+\left|0\right|=6\ units$$

Multiple Choice

Use absolute value to identify the distance between point P and the point reflected over the y axis. .

• $$-5+5=10\ units$$

• $$\left|-5\right|+\left|5\right|=10\ units$$

• $$\left|-5\right|-\left|5\right|=10\ units$$

• $$\left|5\right|+\left|5\right|=10\ units$$
