By definition, the absolute value of a number is given by:
[tex]| a | = a
[/tex]
Where,
The number a is a real number. This means that the value of a is both negative and positive.
The result is always greater than zero.
Therefore, the absolute value of the given numbers is given by:
[tex]|9.8| = 9.8[/tex]
[tex]|-\frac{10}{3}| = \frac{10}{3} [/tex]
Answer:
the absolute value of 9.8 and of -10/3 is:
[tex]|9.8| = 9.8[/tex]
[tex]|-\frac{10}{3}| = \frac{10}{3} [/tex]
