Part 1 of 2 Error Analysis Chetsea needed to compare the absolute values ol -136 and -132 She incorrectly said that the absolute value of - 136 is less than the absolute value of -132 How do you know that \( |-136|>|-132| \) ? What mistake might Chelsea have mado? How do you know that \( |-136|>|-132| \) ? The distance from -136 to zero is less than the distance from -132 to zero B. The number -136 is located to the left of -132 on a number line C. The number -136 is located to the right of -132 on a number line D. The distance from -136 to zero is greater than the distance from -132 to zero D. 130

1. The absolute value of a number represents its distance from zero on the number line. In this case, \[ |-136| = 136 \quad \text{and} \quad |-132| = 132. \] 2. Since 136 is greater than 132, we have \[ |-136| > |-132|. \] 3. The correct explanation is that the distance from \(-136\) to zero is greater than the distance from \(-132\) to zero. This corresponds to option D. 4. Chelsea's mistake might have been confusing the order of numbers on the number line with the comparison of their absolute values. Although \(-136\) is to the left of \(-132\) (which means it is a smaller number), its absolute value (or distance from zero) is actually larger.
