  1. Answer:
    A. 29
    B. 32
    C. 126
    D. 8
    E. 50
    Step-by-step explanation:
    Whenever you have a number in absolute value signs, they change into a positive number.
    For A, you have |-22| + |-17|. Because these numbers are in absolute value signs they change to 22 + 17 which is now easy to solve which is 39.
    For B, you have 48 – |-16|. Since -16 is in absolute value, you change it to 16. The new equation is now 48 – 16 which is 32.
    You do these for all the problems and they will be easy to solve.
