Simplify:

- | - 12| - |4 - 8|
= - 16


Step by Step:
- | - 12| - |4 - 8|
= - 12 - | 4 - 8|
= - 12 - | - 4|
= - 12 - 4
= - 16

Therefore, absolute value of - | -12| - | 4 - 8| is equal to - 16





Hope that helps!!!

Absolute value makes everything inside the sign positive. Therefore,
-|-12|=-12
|4-8|=|-4|=4
Therefore, -12-4=-16, But absolute value of that would be 16
