Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, recall what an absolute value function is.

When you plug number into an absolute value function, or make it an absolute value, you will ALWAYS get a positive version of that number.

When the question asks, what number could be the absolute value of another number, it's asking you what is a possible outcome of making a number an absolute value.

Since we know that making any number an absolute value, makes that number positive. We can get rid of all of the negative answers.

You are left with B.

Answer:

B. 1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is the non-negative version of a number/variable. Whether the sign is negative or positive, the absolute value is always positive.

Example:

|-4|=4
|2|=2
