Simplify the expression |ab| if

a>0 and b>0

Thanks:)

If a and b are both positive, then the expression |ab| simplifies to simply ab.

To simplify the expression |ab|, where a > 0 and b > 0, we need to understand that |ab| represents the absolute value of the product of a and b.

The absolute value of a number is its non-negative value, so it ignores the negative sign and gives us the positive magnitude of the number.

Since both a and b are greater than 0 in this case, their product, ab, will also be greater than 0. Therefore, the absolute value of ab is simply equal to ab.

In other words, if a > 0 and b > 0, then |ab| = ab.

So, the simplified expression is ab.

Recall that

|x| = x if x >= 0
|x| = -x if x < 0
so, what do you think?
