What is the magnitude (size) of -5.8?

The magnitude of the negative 5.8 will be 5.8 Then the correct option is D.
The absolute function is also known as the mode function. The value of the absolute function is always positive.
The absolute function is given as
f(x) = | x – h | + k
The magnitude of the number will always be positive.
For example - The value of time, length, mass, temperature etc will always positive.
The magnitude of the negative 5.8 will be
⇒ |-5.8|
When the value in the mode may be negative or may be positive, but when the mode is removed, then the value becomes positive.
⇒ |-5.8|
⇒ 5.8
The magnitude of the negative 5.8 will be 5.8
