Absolute Value • Absolute Value – the distance from zero a number is on the number line – it is always positive • Symbol : │x│ • Definition: • If x is positive ( x > 0) then │x│ = x • If x is negative ( x < 0) then │x │ = -x • Absolute Value Equations have a possibility of two solutions • This is because the value inside the │ │ can equal either the negative or the positive of the value on the other side of the equal sign • Always isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the equal sign before breaking the problem into two pieces.
–3x = –9 –3x = –21 Subtract 15 from each side of both equations. Check: |15 – 3x| = 6 |15 – 3x| = 6 |15 – 3(3)| 6 |15 – 3(7)| 6 |6| 6 |–6| 6 6 = 6 6 = 6 Absolute Value Equations and Inequalities Solve |15 – 3x| = 6. |15 – 3x| = 6 15 – 3x = 6 or 15 – 3x = –6 The value of 15 – 3x can be 6 or –6 since |6| and |–6| both equal 6. x = 3 or x = 7 Divide each side of both equations by –3.
Try This Problem │3x + 2 │ = 7 3x + 2 = 7 or 3x + 2 = -7 3x = 5 or 3x = -9 x = 5/3 or x = -3 Check your answer by plugging it back into the equation. .

Try This Problem Solve 2│3x - 1 │ + 5 = 33. 2 │3x - 1 │ = 28 │3x – 1│ = 14 3x – 1 = 14 or 3x – 1 = -14 3x = 15 or 3x = -14 x = 5 or x = -8/3 Check the solutions by plugging them into the original problem. They both work.
Extraneous Solutions • Extraneous solution – a solution of an equation derived from an original equation that is not a solution of the original equation • This is why we MUST check all answers to see if they work in the original problem.

Absolute Value Inequalities Let k represent a positive real number • │x │ ≥ k is equivalent to x ≤ -k or x ≥ k • │x │ ≤ k is equivalent to -k ≤ x ≤ k • Remember to isolate the absolute value before rewriting the problem with two inequalities

Ranges in Measurement • Absolute value inequalities and compound inequalities can be used to specify an allowable range in measurement. • Tolerance – the difference between a measurement and its maximum and minimum allowable values • Equals one half (½) the difference between the max and min values
Tolerance For example, if a manufacturing specification calls for a dimension d of 10 cm with a tolerance of 0.1 cm, then the allowable difference between d and 10 is less than or equal to 0.1 • |d - 10 | ≤ 0.1 absolute value inequality • d – 10 ≤ 0.1 and d – 10 ≥-0.1 equivalent compound inequality • -0.1 ≤ d – 10 ≤ 0.1 equivalent compound inequality • 9.9 ≤ d ≤ 10.1 simplified compound inequality
