which of the following is true?
a. |-4| < 3
b. |-4| < |3|
c. |-3| < -4
d. |-3| < |-4|

D

Step-by-step explanation:

When you see something like this |-4| in the end 9 times out of 10  they want you to change it from a negative to a positive. So what you will end up getting is

a.)4<3

b.)4<3

c.)3<-4

d.)3<4

After you end up getting it all like this you'll see 3 of them could be the answer. You know that this symbol (<) means less than so you need to find the answer where A is less than B (A<B). At this point its all a matter of reasoning and deduction A and B are the same 4<3 and since 4 is not less than 3 it's incorrect, and C is wrong because 3 is not less than -4 its greater than -4 therefore it is incorrect.

So you're correct answer is D because 3 is less than 4.
