Evaluate each expression. |-10|

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recognize that the vertical bars around a number represent the absolute value, which is the distance of the number from zero on the number line, always expressed as a non-negative value.
Write the expression as \(| -10 |\), which means the absolute value of -10.
Recall that the absolute value of any negative number is its positive counterpart, so \(| -10 | = 10\).
Therefore, the expression simplifies to 10.
No further simplification is needed since absolute value results are always non-negative.

Absolute Value

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. It is always non-negative. For example, |-10| equals 10 because -10 is 10 units away from zero.
