Question

Help!!!!!! What is the absolute value of Point A labelled on the number line? Drag and drop the answer into the box to match the correct statement.

Answer 1

It would be 3 1/3. All you have to do is count on the number like to that point. Then the absolute value of something is always positive.

Answer 2

see below (I hope this helps!)

Explanation:

We can see that every 3 tick marks on the line is 1, therefore, the space between 2 tick marks is 1/3. Using this information, we can see that A =
`-3(1)/(3)`. The absolute value of a negative number is simply the additive inverse of the number, therefore, our answer is
`-(-3(1)/(3)) = 3(1)/(3)`.
