Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground. which statement shows the distance she is from ground level? |12| = −12, therefore paula is at a distance of −12 feet |−12| = 12, therefore paula is at a distance of −12 feet |−12| = 12, therefore paula is at a distance of 12 feet |12| = 12, therefore paula is at a distance of 12 feet

The absolute value of a number is the distance from point to the origin. Since Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground, then the distance from point -12 on the number line to the origin is 12 (distance cannot be negative).

Thus, |-12|=12 and Paula is at a distance of 12 feet.
