Simplify: |x−y| if x is less than y

1 Answer

2 votes

Answer:

y-x

Explanation:

I assumed you meant that you wanted me to rewrite the expression without the absolute value signs. Since the absolute value of a number will be the same whichever way you place the numbers, you can rewrite |x-y| as y-x, as x is less than y.
