The uncertainty in the estimate of a magnitude E is aboutPlus or minus 0.3 unit.
This means that an earthquake with a magnitude estimatedat 6.1 might actually have a magnitude as low as 5.8 or ashigh as 6.4.

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line.
Solving Absolute Value Equations Solving Absolute Value Equations
The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line.
Since distance is nonnegative (positive), the absolute value of a number is alwaysnonnegative.
