Khan Academy: Absolute Value: Comparing Absolute Values

Do you want to use the resource? Absolutely. Scholars learn about absolute value and its relation to magnitude and distance on a number line. They compare numbers in context by applying absolute value. 

What is absolute value? What is an absolute value function? Emerging mathematicians solve equations containing variables inside an absolute value sign.  They graph each function on a coordinate plane and identify the maximum and...

Young math whizzes write the opposite of the each integer in the first twelve problems. They write the absolute value for each integer in the second set of problems and name a pair of integers with the same absolute value.

In this absolute value equations worksheet, students solve absolute-value equations and inequalities. They graph answers on a number line. This one-page worksheet contains 34 problems.

Sal reviews absolute value equations by taking viewers through a careful and deliberate problem-solving process. Those who didn't thoroughly understand absolute value during class will appreciate Sal's steady and straightforward...

Combining the skills from the previous videos, particularly inequalities and absolute values, Sal works to solve several new sample problems. He encourages watching the video "over and over," which is good advice for mathematicians of...

Sal demonstrates how to solve an absolute value equation, keeping in mind there are two possible answers.

Investigate with your classes the meaning of absolute value. Here, the instructor explains the definition of absolute value and uses the definition to evaluate different expressions. The expressions include simplifying within the...

Plot the values on a number line and find the absolute value.

The concept of absolute value can be difficult for learners to grasp. Reinforce their understanding of a basic absolute value expression and connect it to solving equations and inequalities. Scholars write two equations/inequalities to...
