Question

Which statement is true? A. |9| > |-9| B. |-9| does not equal too |9| C. |-9| > |-8| D. |-8| > |-9|

Answer 1

One of the answers are correct choose it

Answer 2

To evaluate the statements:

A. |9| > |-9|
- This is false because |9| = 9 and |-9| = 9, so 9 is not greater than 9.

B. |-9| does not equal too |9|
- This statement is poorly worded but implies that |-9| ≠ |9|. This is false because |-9| = 9 and |9| = 9, so they are equal.

C. |-9| > |-8|
- This is false because |-9| = 9 and |-8| = 8, so 9 is greater than 8.

D. |-8| > |-9|
- This is false because |-8| = 8 and |-9| = 9, so 8 is not greater than 9.

The true statement is: **None of these options are correct.**

Answer 3

Let's re-evaluate the statements carefully:

A. |9| > |-9|
- |9| = 9 and |-9| = 9, so this is false.

B. |-9| does not equal too |9|
- This seems to mean that |-9| ≠ |9|, which is false because |-9| = |9| = 9.

C. |-9| > |-8|
- |-9| = 9 and |-8| = 8, so this is true because 9 > 8.

D. |-8| > |-9|
- |-8| = 8 and |-9| = 9, so this is false because 8 is not greater than 9.

So the correct statement is **C. |-9| > |-8|**. Thank you for your patience!
