I 4 - 9 I = I -5 I = 5
Remember
where a is any number
I -a I = a
I a I = a
absolute value means distance from 0 in the number line, so - (negative) is disregarded.
I 3 I = 3 ===> 3 places to the right from 0
I -3 I = 3 === 3 places to the left from 0

This is the absolute value of 4 - 9
normally the answer would be -5, but since the absolute value symbol has been used the answer is 5.

Error.
|4-9|? is not a correct mathematical equation.
4-9= is a correct mathematical equation
so is |4-9|=
Assuming that 4-9= was your intention the correct answer would be negative 5
4 - 9 = -5
Assuming that |4-9|= (absolute value) was your intention the correct answer would be 5
|4-9|=X
=> |-5|=
=> X=5
Your entire equation would be.
I 4 - 9 I = I -5 I = 5
