Answer:
Option C; -8, 5, 6, |-7|, 8
Explanation:
To start off, we can go ahead and eliminate options A and D as we know that 8 is greater than 6 and -8 is smaller than 5. Now we have to look at what |-7| is!
So, |-7| is asking for the absolute value of -7. Absolute value is a real number without regard to its sign.
Since we are looking for -7 without the sign, we drop our negative sign (-) and just have 7! We know that option 3 must be right since -8 is less than 5, 6, 7, and 8!
Hope this Helps! :)
