Question

Find the value of $-\left|18-5\right|$

Answer 1

Solve the given function

Given $-\left|18-5\right|$

A Modulus function gives absolute value of a variable or a number and the result is always positive. i.e $\left|a\right|=a$ if $a$ is greater than equal to $0$

$$\begin{gathered} -\left|18-5\right|=-\left|13\right| \\ \Rightarrow -\left|18-5\right|=-13 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, $\mathrm{-}\left|18-5\right|$ is $-13$
