those lines mean "absolute value"
pretty much you are making any negative value inside positive, and if the number is already positive, keep it positive
one way to think about it is "how far away (in units) is this number from 0 on a number line?"
on a number line, you find -14, and say, well, it's 14 units from 0, that's what absolute value tells us, how big the number is from the value 0, doesn't matter if it's negative value or positive, absolute value always makes them positive!
