Which symbol is used to make -6? |-8| a true statement?
A. >
B. <
C. =
Is the answer B?
Thank you
B is my answer also.
To determine which symbol makes the statement |-8|< -6 true, we need to evaluate the absolute value of -8, which is 8.
Therefore, the statement |-8| < -6 can be rewritten as 8 < -6.
Since 8 is not less than -6, the statement 8 < -6 is false.
As a result, none of the given options (A. >, B. <, C. =) make the statement |-8| < -6 true.
Hence, the answer is none of the above (D. None).
