Query regarding Q22 in OG 12..

by Nipun Ravi » Sat Apr 24, 2010 8:23 am
The question asks the greatest absolute value of the 5 points on the coordinate axis. The points are -2,-1,0,1,2 . The explanation and the answer says that the point with value -2 has the greatest absolute value. What I do not understand is that the point with the value 2 will also have the same absolute value of 2. Shouldn't there be 2 answers?

check the diagram once again.

E points to a value less than 2.

Thanks man.

That was very silly of me, maybe I was blind when I read that question.

Thanks for waking me up :))
