Answer

H) -|19-41|

Work Step by Step

-|19-41| First work inside the absolute value bracket: -|19-41|= -|-22| The absolute value of -|-22| = 22. However. there is a negative in front of the brackets. Multiply 22 with the negative: -(22) = -22. This is the same solution to the equation 19-41 first given at the beginning of the problem. Therefore H) -|19-41| is the answer.
