A:
Solution              To    find   Which two numbers on the number line have  sn               absolute value of 1.75  .             Absolute   value   means    " how  far   a  number    is   from               zero "  .            "1.75"    is    1.75   away   from   zero  .            and  " -1.75"   is  also   1.75    away   from  zero  .           i.e                |  0  - 1.75 |   =   1.75               |  1.75 - 0 |  =  1.75              So ,  the  absolute   value  of   "1.75"    is  1.75             similarly  , absolute  value  of  "1.75"   is   1.75  .           Hence  , the  two  numbers   are   -1.75  and  1.75  .
