Problem 57
Question
Rewrite each expression without absolute value bars. $$\frac{-3}{|-3|}$$
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
-1
1Step 1: Identify the expression inside absolute value bars
In this case, the expression inside the absolute value bars is -3.
2Step 2: Simplify the absolute value
The absolute value of -3 is 3, because absolute value gets rid of any negative sign. Replace |-3| by 3 in the expression.
3Step 3: Final Simplification
The expression now becomes \(-3/3\), which simplifies to -1.
