find the value of

line x - y line

if x = 2 , y = -3

I got 5

it's supposed to be |x-y|

I don't know there's supposed to be 2 answers

5 is correct. I don't think there is another answer.

To find the value of |x - y|, substitute the given values of x and y into the expression and evaluate it.

Given:
x = 2
y = -3

Substitute these values into the expression |x - y|:
|x - y| = |2 - (-3)|

Simplify the expression inside the absolute value:
|x - y| = |2 + 3|

Evaluate the sum inside the absolute value:
|x - y| = |5|

The absolute value of 5 is always positive, so |5| = 5.

Therefore, the value of |x - y| is 5.
