Elliott states that he absolute value and opposite of a number are the same thing. Is Elliott correct? Explain.

Elliot is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take an example: 2

Absolute value of 2 = |2| = 2

But the opposite of 2 = -(2) = -2

But 2 ≠ 2, so Elliott is incorrect.

The opposite of a number changes the sign from - to +, or + to -. Absolute value changes the sign of a number from - to + and keeps + as +.

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of a number is the distance from 0. Distance is always positive, so the absolute value of a number is that number but positive. Thus, the absolute value of |2| is still 2. However, the opposite of a number is that number on the opposite side of 0. Therefore, the opposite of 2 is -2. To find the opposite of a number just flip the sign.

So, these are different because the absolute value is always positive while the opposite can be either sign.

step-by-step explanation:

it will be a cylinder. with a diameter of 8 and 4 single pieces high

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.
