Answer 2

Explanation:

to write the absolute value of a number, use short vertical lines (|) on either side of the number. For example, the absolute value of −3 is written |−3|. Notice that distance is always positive or 0. |−3| = 3, as −3 is 3 units away from 0 and |3| = 3, as 3 is 3 units away from 0.
