Absolute values In an absolute value‚ everything with it is counted as a positive. ∣-a∣ = --a= a ∣a∣ =a In an equation‚ absolute values have two possibilities when talking about equations ∣a+b∣ =x = a+b=x = a+b= -x e.g. Solve ∣x-4∣=8 x-4=8 OR x-4= -8 x=12 x=-4 Sub both answer into the equation ∣12-4∣ =8 OR ∣-4-4∣ =8 8=8 8=8 Both solution re true so x=12 or x=-4 Absolute inequalities (method 1) If ∣a+b∣ ≤x∣a+b∣
