Question

Absolute Value is always positive.

True
False

Answer 1

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation: Absolute value means distance from zero on a number line. A common mistake is to assume that absolute value is always positive but that's not necessarily the case.

Take 0 for example.

It's 0 units away from zero on a number line which

means it has an absolute value of zero.

However, all other numbers besides zero will have

an absolute value that is positive.

Answer 2

Answer:  true

it should be true. Think of the numbers -3 and 3 on a number line. They're both the same distance from 0, or three points away from 0, so that would be true! :)
