To answer the questions accurately, we need to know the specific scores for John (J) and Kamira (K) after round one. Since that information is not provided, I'll describe how to complete the statements with variables for John’s and Kamira’s scores.

Let:

  • \( J \) = John's score
  • \( K \) = Kamira's score

Using these variables, we can complete the statements as follows:

  1. The sum of John's score and Kamira's score is: \[ J + K \]

  2. The difference between John's score and Kamira's score is: \[ J - K \]

  3. The absolute value of the difference between John's score and Kamira's score is: \[ |J - K| \]

  4. The sum of the absolute value of John's score and the absolute value of Kamira's score is: \[ |J| + |K| \]

If you have the specific values for John (J) and Kamira (K), simply substitute those values into the statements above to get the numerical answers. If you provide those scores, I can help calculate the specific results!
