well the absolute means positive so it would be a positive 1.6

Answer:

The absolute value of Point B labelled on the number line is 1.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a number line

Coordinate of point A = -2.2

Coordinate of point B = -1.6

Coordinate of point C = 1.2

We need to find the absolute value of Point B labelled on the number line.

Absolute value : Absolute value of a real number is the non-negative value of that number. Let x be a real number, then

[tex]|x|=|-x|=x[/tex]

The absolute value of Point B is

[tex]|-1.6|=1.6[/tex]

Therefore the absolute value of Point B labelled on the number line is 1.6.
