Absolute value means you do all the calculations on the inside, then make that result positive.

    That's what I thought it was but the book was throwing me in a loop by making me think of it in terms of number lines. Normally I'd do |3| + |2| as 3 + 2 = 5 just as I'd do |-3| + |2| as 3 + 2 = 5 and -|3| + |2| as -3 + 2 = -1 Is all of this correct?
