What is an absolute value?
An absolute value returns the non-negative value of an expression or number
The absolute value expression is given as:
[tex]\frac{|34 - 49|}{6} + \frac{|17 - 24|}{3}[/tex]
Start by evaluating the differences
[tex]\frac{|34 - 49|}{6} + \frac{|17 - 24|}{3}= \frac{|-15|}{6} + \frac{|-7|}{3}[/tex]
Evaluate the absolute values
[tex]\frac{|34 - 49|}{6} + \frac{|17 - 24|}{3}= \frac{15}{6} + \frac{7}{3}[/tex]
Add the fractions
[tex]\frac{|34 - 49|}{6} + \frac{|17 - 24|}{3}= \frac{15 + 14}{6}[/tex]
Simplify the numerator
[tex]\frac{|34 - 49|}{6} + \frac{|17 - 24|}{3}= \frac{29}{6}[/tex]
Hence, the result of simplifying the expression is 29/6
