I -10 I + I 5 I

Remember, absolute value is how far the number is from zero.

So, the absolute value of  negative number is the number but just as a positive. And the absolute value of a positive number is the same thing.

I -10 I = 10, as it is 10 units away from 0.

I 5 I = 5, as it is 5 units away from 0.

So, our new question is :

10 + 5 = 15

So, I -10 I + I 5 I = 15

D) 15
