Which of the following is not the same as positive 8? - |-8| 8 units to the right of 0 on a number line + 8 the opposite of - 8

-|-8| is not the same as positive 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value is always positive, even for the negative numbers.

So in - |-8|, |-8| will be equal to 8, as the absolute value results in a positive number and thus the final result will be negative due to a negative sign outside the bars.

So, - |-8| = - 8

Thus this value is not equal to positive 8.

Numbers on right of 0 are positive. Thus 8 units to the right of 8 will be positive 8.

Opposite of a number has the opposite sign. So opposite of - 8 will be + 8.
