Not sure what my race has to do with this, but yes I am black. So what? I never understand when people say that I am no good in math. I am VERY well done in math. I am very well done in science, and I have an associates math degree. Also, I have a better job than you do I bet (68,000 per year).

The absolute value is the distance between zero and the number on the number line.

The absolute value is always positive or zero, never negative.
