Answer 2

Answer: "distance from zero on a number line"

Explanation: Absolute value means "distance from zero" on a number line.

Since distance can either be 0 or positive,

absolute value is either 0 or positive.

Absolute value is represented with vertical bars on either side of the number.

An example is shown below, we have the absolute value of -5.

The absolute value of a number is just

the positive version of that number.

So the positive version of -5 is 5.
