Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are asked to find the absolute value of10.

STEP 2

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. It is always positive or zero, never negative. The absolute value of a number can be found using the formula $|x| =\begin{cases}x & \text{if } x \geq0 \\ -x & \text{if } x <0\end{cases}$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given value into the formula. Since10 is greater than0, we use the first case of the formula $|10| =10$ So, the absolute value of10 is10.
