14 because it’s the distance between -14 and 0

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

|-14| = Absolute value of -14

Absolute value is the distance from 0

Distance can not be negative, so the absolute value of -14 must be positive.

Using this information, we can cross out A and B.

If the number inside the absolute value is positive, the number without absolute value is equal to itself.

If the number inside the absolute value is negative, the number without absolute value is the opposite to itself.

Example.

|-2| = 2

The distance from 0 to -14 is 14.

The answer is D, 14.

Hope this helps :)
