Absolute Value
Absolute Value
means ...
... only how far a number is from zero:
<span>
<span><span>
</span>
<span>
<span>
"6" is 6 away from zero,
and "−6" is also 6 away from zero.
So the absolute value of 6 is 6,
and the absolute value of −6 is also 6 </span>
</span>
</span></span>
More Examples:
<span><span>The absolute value of −9 is 9</span><span>The absolute value of 3 is 3</span><span>The absolute value of 0 is 0</span><span>The absolute value of −156 is 156</span></span>
No Negatives!
So in practice "absolute value" means to remove any negative
sign in front of a number, and to think of all numbers as positive (or
zero).
Absolute Value Symbol
To show that we want the absolute value of something, we put
"|" marks either side (they are called "bars" and are found on the right
side of a keyboard), like these examples:
<span>
<span><span>
|−5| = 5
|7| = 7
</span>
</span></span>
Sometimes absolute value is also written as "abs()", so abs(−1) = 1 is the same as <span>|−1| = 1</span>
Answer:
C, Linear
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I
</u>
- Linear - Proportional relationship y = mx + b
- Nonlinear - Any graph that has a degree x higher than 1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
y = 7x + 14
<u>Step 2: Identify</u>
We see a linear equation (proportional relationship). Therefore, we have a linear equation.
if you start at the point (0,1), you are going to go up and over to (-2,4), which means you will go up 3 and to the left, which means negative, 2
