Name: Date: Period: Topic: Solving Absolute Value Equations & Inequalities Essential Question: What is the process needed to solve absolute value equations and inequalities? Warm-Up: Describe the similarities and differences between equations and inequalities. Home-Learning #2 Review Quiz #7: Recall : Absolute value | x | : is the distance between x and 0. If | x | = 8, then – 8 and 8 is a solution of the equation ; or | x | 8, then any number between 8 and 8 is a solution of the inequality. Absolute Value (of x) • • • • Symbol lxl The distance x is from 0 on the number line. Always positive Ex: l-3l=3 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 Recall: You can solve some absolute-value equations using mental math. For instance, you learned that the equation | x | 3 has two solutions: 3 and 3. To solve absolute-value equations, you can use the fact that the expression inside the absolute value symbols can be either positive or negative. Solving an Absolute-Value Equation: Solve | x 2 | 5 Solve | 2x 7 | 5 4 Answer :: Solving an Absolute-Value Equation Solve | x 2 | 5 The expression x 2 can be equal to 5 or 5. x 2 IS POSITIVE |x2|5 x 2 5 x7 x 2 IS NEGATIVE |x2|5 x 2 5 x 3 The equation has two solutions: 7 and –3. CHECK | 7 2 | | 5 | 5 | 3 2 | | 5 | 5 Answer :: Solve | 2x 7 | 5 4 SOLUTION Isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the equation. 2x 7 IS POSITIVE 2x 2x 77 IS IS NEGATIVE NEGATIVE | 2x 7 | 5 4 || 2x 2x 77 || 55 44 | 2x 7 | 9 2x 7 +9 || 2x 2x 77 || 99 2x 2x 9 2x 77 7 9 9 2x 16 x8 2x 2x 2 2 TWO SOLUTIONS x 1 x 1 Solve the following Absolute-Value Equation: Practice: 1) Solve 6x-3 = 15 2) Solve 2x + 7 -3 = 8 Answer :: 1) Solve 6x-3 = 15 6x-3 = 15 or 6x = 18 or x = 3 or 6x-3 = -15 6x = -12 x = -2 * Plug in answers to check your solutions! Answer :: 2) Solve 2x + 7 -3 = 8 Get the abs. value part by itself first! 2x+7 = 11 Now split into 2 parts. 2x+7 = 11 or 2x+7 = -11 2x = 4 or 2x = -18 x = 2 or x = -9 Check the solutions. ***Important NOTE*** 3 2x + 9 +12 = 10 - 12 - 12 3 2x + 9 = - 2 3 3 2x + 9 = - 2 3 What about this absolute value equation? 3x – 6 – 5 = – 7 Solving an Absolute Value Inequality: ● Step 1: Rewrite the inequality as a conjunction or a disjunction. ● If you have a or you are working with a conjunction or an ‘and’ statement. Remember: “Less thand” ● If you have a or you are working with a disjunction or an ‘or’ statement. Remember: “Greator” ● Step 2: In the second equation you must negate the right hand side and reverse the direction of the inequality sign. ● Solve as a compound inequality. Ex: “and” inequality 4 x 9 21 • Becomes an “and” problem Positive Negative 4x – 9 ≤ 21 +9 +9 4x ≤ 30 4 4 x ≤ 7.5 4x – 9 ≥ -21 +9 +9 4x ≥ -12 4 4 x ≥ -3 -3 7 8 This is an ‘or’ statement. (Greator). Ex: “or” inequality |2x + 1| > 7 2x + 1 > 7 –1 -1 2x > 6 2 2 x>3 or -4 In the 2nd inequality, reverse the inequality sign and negate the right side value. 2x + 1 < - 7 –1 -1 2x < - 8 2 2 3 Solving Absolute Value Inequalities: Solve | x 4 | < 3 and graph the solution. Solve | 2x 1 | 3 6 and graph the solution. Answer :: Solve | x 4 | < 3 x 4 IS POSITIVE |x4|3 x 4 IS NEGATIVE |x4|3 x 4 3 x 4 3 x7 x1 Reverse inequality symbol. The solution is all real numbers greater than 1 and less than 7. This can be written as 1 x 7. Answer :: Solve | 2x 1 | 3 6 and graph the solution. 2x + 1 IS POSITIVE 2x + 1 IS NEGATIVE | 2x 1 | 3 6 | 2x 1 | 3 6 | 2x 1 | 9 | 2x 1 | 9 2x 1 +9 2x 1 9 Reverse inequality symbol. 2x 10 2x 8 x4 x 5 The solution is all real numbers greater than or equal to 4 or less than or equal to 5. This can be written as the compound inequality x 5 or x 4. 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Solve and graph the following Absolute-Value Inequalities: 3) 3x 2 3 11 4) |x -5| < 3 Solve Answer & graph. :: 3) 3x 2 3 11 • Get absolute value by itself first. 3x 2 8 • Becomes an “or” problem 3x 2 8 or 3x 2 8 3x 10 or 3x 6 10 x or x 2 3 -2 3 4 Answer :: This is an ‘and’ statement. (Less thand). 4) |x -5|< 3 x -5< 3 and x -5< 3 x -5< 3 and x -5> -3 x < 8 and x > 2 2<x<8 Rewrite. In the 2nd inequality, reverse the inequality sign and negate the right side value. Solve each inequality.
