Module 9 on Absolute value, Equations, and Inequalities.
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Solve: x - 7 < and 2x + 1 < 9 | x - 7 < 2 and 2x + 1 < 9 x < 9 and 2x < 8 x < 9 and x < 4 |
| |x| = 7 | 7, -7 |
| |x| = 2 | 2, -2 |
| |-4| - |17| = | -13 |
| |-8| - |15| = | -7 |
| What are two inequalities joined by AND or OR called? | Compound Inequalities |
| What is the standard form for an absolute value function? | f(x) = a |mx+b| +c |
| What does the symbol |x| denote? | |x| denotes the absolute value of x, which is the without its sign. For example, |+4|=4 |-4|=-4 |
| There are two forms of absolute value inequalities. What are they? | One with LESS THAN, for example, |a|<6 One with GREATER THAN, for example, |a|>6 Note: They are solved differently!! |
| What are some others names (or terms) for absolute value? | Other names for absolute value include "numerical value," "modulus," and "magnitude. |
