Absolute Value Functions

We've been looking at absolute value functions for the past two days. They look like a "V" and contain a vertex, which is the starting point. Don't forget that when you look at the number inside the absolute value, you must flip the sign and go the opposite way on the x axis. We don't flip any numbers outside of the absolute value.

We also translated functions on the coordinate plane. We usually start with the base function y = |x| unless it specifies otherwise in the problem. Go over and backwards by your x, and up or down on the y.

The second review sheet was given out today! The due date is Sept 12 (Thursday) with the early bird deadline the day before. Shout out to Shulondria Smith for tutoring students in class today when they didn't understand, and shout out to Gabby Foster for staying after class to talk about math problems!
