The absolute value function takes any term and transforms it to its non-negative form.

#abs(-38) = 38#

#38#

Explanation:

Absolute value makes any number positive, so in general, we can say

#abs(+-x)=x#

No matter if #x# is positive or negative, the absolute value of #x# will be positive.

Hope this helps!
