What is 1110|11 - 10|?

First compute the difference: 1110=111 - 10 = 1. Then take the absolute value: 1=1|1| = 1.

Which of the following values lies strictly between 194-\dfrac{19}{4} and 112\dfrac{11}{2} on the real number line?

The interval is open: 194=4.75-\dfrac{19}{4} = -4.75 and 112=5.5\dfrac{11}{2} = 5.5, so values must satisfy 4.75<x<5.5-4.75 < x < 5.5. Check each choice: 5<4.75-5 < -4.75 (outside), 4-4 is between the bounds, 112\dfrac{11}{2} equals the upper endpoint (not strict), and 194-\dfrac{19}{4} equals the lower endpoint (not strict).

What is 2|-2|?

Absolute value gives the non-negative distance from 00, so 2=2|-2| = 2.

Which value is greatest on the real number line?

Compare positions: 95=1.8\dfrac{9}{5} = 1.8, 230.67-\dfrac{2}{3} \approx -0.67, 58=0.625\dfrac{5}{8} = 0.625, and 7120.58-\dfrac{7}{12} \approx -0.58. The greatest is 95\dfrac{9}{5}.

What is 8|8|?

The absolute value of a non-negative number is itself: 8=8|8| = 8.

What is the distance on the real number line from 00 to 238-\dfrac{23}{8}?

Distance from zero is absolute value: 238=238\left|-\dfrac{23}{8}\right| = \dfrac{23}{8}.

What is 0|0|?

00 is its own distance from 00, so 0=0|0| = 0.

On the real number line, how many integers are strictly between 837-\dfrac{83}{7} and 674\dfrac{67}{4}?

Convert the bounds: 83711.86-\dfrac{83}{7} \approx -11.86 and 674=16.75\dfrac{67}{4} = 16.75. Strictly between means integers nn with 837<n<674-\dfrac{83}{7} < n < \dfrac{67}{4}, so nn runs from 11-11 through 1616, including 00. Count with 16(11)+116 - (-11) + 1: subtracting endpoints gives the gap between them; the +1+1 counts both 11-11 and 1616 inclusive.
