I NEED HELP ASAP!! I need help on #40, and we’re learning subtracting integers, but this has nothing do to with the lesson (i think). So someone please tell me what the evaluation of |-12| is :)

It's 12. :) A negative sign within an absolute value doesn't matter, so the number will be positive if it's by itself.
