To solve (a) \( |-9+6| \), start by calculating the expression inside the absolute value: \(-9 + 6 = -3\). The absolute value of \(-3\) is \(3\), so \( |-9+6| = 3\). For (b) \( |-9| + 6 \), first find the absolute value of \(-9\), which is \(9\). Then add \(6\) to this: \(9 + 6 = 15\). Thus, \( |-9| + 6 = 15\).
