Question 2 of 17

Which of the following is equivalent to

|-12+3||-12+3|?

Answers

A-|12|+|3|-12+|3|

B-|12|-|3|-12-|3|

C - |12|-|3|12-|3|

D - |12|+|3|12+|3|

C) |12|-|3|

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression, |-12+3|.

On solving, we get,

|-12+3| = |-9|

Since, the modulus gives the result as positive number.

So, we have,

|-12+3| = |-9| = 9

Thus, according to the options, we see,

A) - |12|+|3|

-|12|+|3| = - 12 + 3 = - 9

B) - |12|-|3|

-|12|-|3| = - 12 - 3 = - 15

C) |12|-|3|

|12|-|3| = 12 - 3 = 9

D) |12| + |3|

|12| + |3| = 12 + 3 = 15

So, the expression equivalent to |-12+3| is (C) |12|-|3|.
