Absolute value is always positive since it is the distance from 0.

The signs are always inside the "brackets" |number|.

Credit is negative, and higher credit means less money.

$75 in credit means - 75.

So the absolute value of this is written as |-75| and the solution to that is 75.

So the answer is B. |-75| = 75
