MCQ
If $x$ is greater than $2,$ then $|2 - x| =$
  • A
    $2 - x$
  • ✓
    $x - 2$
  • C
    $2 + x$
  • D
    $-x - 2$
✓

Answer

Correct option: B.
$x - 2$
If a is negative integer, then $|a| = -a.$
Here, $x$ is greater than $2$. So, $2 - x$ is negative.
Therefore, $|2 - x| = -(2 - x) = -2 + x = x - 2.$
Hence, the correct option is $(b).$
