  1. 2-5 Absolute Value Functions & Graphs M11.D.2.1.2: Identify or graph functions, linear equations, or linear inequalities on a coordinate plane

  2. Objectives Graphing Absolute Value Functions

  3. Vocabulary A function of the form f(x) = |mx + b| + c, where m ≠ 0, is an absolute value function. The vertex of a function is the point where the function reaches a maximum or minimum. Graphs of absolute values look like angles

  4. Make a table of values. x –1.5 –1 –0.5 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 y 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 Graphing an Absolute Value Funtion Graph y = |2x – 1| by using a table of values. Evaluate the equation for several values of x. Graph the function.

  5. Using a Graphing Calculator Graph y = |x – 1| – 1 on a graphing calculator. Use the absolute value key. Graph the equation Y1 = abs(X – 1) – 1

  6. > > – – Step 2: Use the definition of absolute value. Write one equation for 3x + 6 0 and a second equation for 3x + 6 < 0. when 3x + 6 0 y + 2 = 3x + 6 y = 3x + 4 Writing Two Linear Equations Use the definition of absolute value to graph y = |3x + 6| – 2. Step 1: Isolate the absolute value. y = |3x + 6| – 2 y + 2 = |3x + 6| when 3x + 6 < 0 y + 2 = –(3x + 6) y = –3x – 8

  7. > > – – Continued (continued) Step 3: Graph each equation for the appropriate domain. When 3x + 6 0, or x –2, y = 3x + 4. When 3x + 6 < 0, or x < –2, y = –3x – 8.

  8. The equation d = |50t| models the train’s distance from the crossing. Real World Example A train traveling on a straight track at 50 mi/h passes a certain crossing halfway through its journey each day. Sketch a graph of its trip based on its distance and time from the crossing.
