Let's solve the problems shown in the image:

### Write the absolute value of each integer:
1. **17**: The absolute value of \( 17 \) is \( |17| = 17 \).
2. **-5**: The absolute value of \( -5 \) is \( |-5| = 5 \).
3. **-8**: The absolute value of \( -8 \) is \( |-8| = 8 \).

### Evaluate each expression:
4. **| -15 | - 8**: 
   - First, find the absolute value of \( -15 \), which is \( | -15 | = 15 \).
   - Now, subtract 8: \( 15 - 8 = 7 \).

5. **12 + | -2 |**: 
   - First, find the absolute value of \( -2 \), which is \( | -2 | = 2 \).
   - Now, add 12: \( 12 + 2 = 14 \).

If you have any questions or need more explanation, feel free to ask! 

Here are 5 related questions to expand on this:

1. What is the absolute value of \( -100 \)?
2. How would you evaluate \( | -20 | + 5 \)?
3. What is the result of \( | -9 | - 3 \)?
4. Can the absolute value of any number ever be negative?
5. What happens when you subtract an absolute value from a negative number?

**Tip**: Absolute values measure the distance from zero, so they are always non-negative.

Write the absolute value of each integer and evaluate the expressions as shown in the image.

Learn how to find the absolute value of integers and evaluate expressions involving absolute values. This example solves absolute value problems like | -15 | - 8 and 12 + | -2 |, suitable for students in Grades 6-8.
