Answer 2

1) | - 4 | < | -6 | is true

2) | - 1 | > | 7 | is false

3) | -8 | < - 2 is false

Explanation:

We need to find if the statements are true or false.

1) | - 4 | < | -6 | true or false

We know that:

|-4| = 4

|-6| = 6

Now, 4 < 6 is true

So, | - 4 | < | -6 | is True

2) | - 1 | > | 7 | true or false

We know that:

|-1| = 1

Now, 1 > 7 is false, because 1 is less than 7 and not gr eater than 7.

So, | - 1 | > | 7 | is false

3) | -8 | < - 2 true or false

We know that

|-8|= 8

Now, 8 < 2 is false, because 8 is not less than 2, it is greater than 2.

So, | -8 | < - 2 is false
