Shmoop: Introduction to Absolute Value

Demonstrate the meaning of an absolute inequality using three different methods. Here, scholars explore absolute value inequalities through graphing, number line distance, and compound inequalities. Pupils complete various activities to...

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

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...

You know how to find absolute values and you know how to solve inequalities — but what happens when these two concepts are in the same problem? A YouTube video first reviews absolute values and moves on to solving absolute value...

What is the best method to overcome negativity? Remember your absolute value! An informative video starts with an explanation of what absolute value is and its connection to measurement. It goes on to solve sample problems to help...

One of the strongest tools an algebra learner develops is the ability to quickly and accurately graph almost any given function. Often doing this quickly and accurately requires rigid transformations to a parent function,...

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...

The sole purpose of this interactive is to graph a function representing the distance of a car from a shoe store. Scholars use an interactive to graph such an absolute value function. They then answer a set of challenge questions...

After reading this inequality word problem, young learners might just skip over it and not even make the attempt to solve it. It seems rather complicated. So watch this video as the teacher explains all that needs to be done to solve...
