If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah
This is always ''interesting'' If you see an absolute value, you always need to deal with when it is zero:
(x-4)=0 ===> x=4,
so that now you have to plot 2 functions!
For x<= 4: what's inside the absolute value (x-4) is negative, right?, then let's make it +, by multiplying by -1:
|x-4| = -(x-4)=4-x
Then:
for x<=4, y = -x+4-7 = -x-3
for x=>4, (x-4) is positive, so no changes:
y= x-4-7 = x-11,
Now plot both lines. Pick up some x that are 4 or less, for y = -x-3, and some points that are 4 or greater, for y=x-11
In fact, only two points are necessary to draw a line, right? So if you want to go full speed, choose:
x=4 and x= 3 for y=-x-3
And just x=5 for y=x-11
The reason is that the absolute value is continuous, so x=4 works for both:
x=4===> y=-4-3 = -7
x==4 ====> y = 4-11=-7!
abs() usually have a cusp int he point where it is =0
Hope it helps, despite being this long!
