0.2|-8|=???
Would |5|-|-7|=12
0.2|-8| = 1.6
0.2 * 8 = 1.6
|5|-|-7| = - 2
5 - 7 = - 2
ok Thank You:)
You're welcome.
To find the value of 0.2|-8|, we first need to understand what the term "|-8|" means. The "|" symbol, known as the absolute value symbol, indicates the distance of a number from zero on the number line. In this case, |-8| is equal to the absolute value of -8, which is 8.
Now, we can substitute the absolute value of -8 into the expression 0.2|-8|. Multiplying 0.2 by 8 gives us:
0.2 * 8 = 1.6
Therefore, 0.2|-8| is equal to 1.6.
Moving on to the next expression, |5|-|-7|, similarly to before, we need to evaluate the absolute values.
The absolute value of 5 is 5, since 5 is already a positive number.
The absolute value of -7 is 7, since |-7| is the distance of -7 from zero on the number line.
Substituting these values into the expression, we get:
|5| - |-7| = 5 - 7 = -2
So, |5| - |-7| is equal to -2.
