∣5−z∣=
To address the problem, we need to interpret ∣5−z∣ correctly. The absolute value function essentially provides a non-negative outcome of the expression it encompasses. Conventionally, this expression is solved by considering two cases: when the expression inside the absolute value is non-negative and when it is negative. However, since there is no inequality provided and no instruction to solve for any specific case of z, the prompt asks to evaluate the original expression:
- Usually, the expression ∣5−z∣ can be interpreted as 5−z if 5−z is non-negative or −(5−z) if 5−z is negative.
- However, the problem seeks the rewritten expression, suggesting 5−z as the principal equivalent, matching the absolute functionality if the expression is positive or zero directly.
Thus, interpreting the multiple-choice options provided:
- Option 1: 5−z — representing the expression inside the absolute value directly.
- Option 2: z−5 — this would suggest a flip that is not aligned directly with expression values.
- Option 4: −5+z — this option is simply a reordering and differs from option 1 structurally.
The choice reflecting the expression within the absolute value is 5−z. Given the task involves equating the expression within the ∣5−z∣ context for the options provided.
Hence, the solution, expressed directly, is simply:
5−z
