First, we substitute the numbers to the corresponding variables.

|(8) + (-15)|

And we change the plus sign since we’re just basically subtracting.

|8 - 15|

|-7|

Now to do absolute values, we must remember that it will always equal a positive unless there is a negative sign outside of the | |.

So the final answer will be 7.
