Oak High football team lost 8 games this season. Which absolute value statement describes the number of games the team lost?
A) |-8| = 8
B) -|8| = 8
C) -|-8| = 8
D) |-8| = -8

Respuesta :

Absolute value is always positive so I would say the answer would be A.
A is the correct answer. B, C, and D, are all incorrect equations. The negative 8 in the abs value is associated with "loss".
