QuestionEvaluate $|f-g|$ for $f=13$ and $g=-50$ .

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given that $f=13$ and $g=-50$ . . We need to evaluate the expression $|f-g|$ .

STEP 2

First, we need to substitute the given values of $f$ and $g$ into the expression.
$|f-g| = |13 - (-50)|$

STEP 3

Next, we simplify the expression inside the absolute value. Remember that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number.
$|f-g| = |13 +50|$

STEP 4

Now, we perform the addition inside the absolute value.
$|f-g| = |63|$

STEP 5

Finally, we evaluate the absolute value of63. The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, so it is always positive or zero.
$|f-g| =63$ So, the value of the expression $|f-g|$ for $f=13$ and $g=-50$ is63.
