Chapter 1: Problem 85

Find the value of each expression. $$-|-9-(-6)|-(-12)$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The final result is 9.

Step by step solution

01

Evaluate the arithmetic inside the absolute value

First add -9 and -(-6) which is equivalent to -9 + 6, and this equals -3.
02

Resolve the absolute value

Next, find the absolute value of -3, which is 3.
03

Subtraction

Now substitute the absolute value to the main equation which becomes -3 - (-12).
04

Final calculation

Lastly, subtract -(-12) from -3 to obtain the final result. In this case, it translates to -3 + 12.
05

Final Result

On basis of above steps, result for -3 + 12 is equal to 9. Thus, the final answer is 9
