 How to solve an absolute value equation.|x-2|=5 | Split into two separate equations except make "5" a negative for one of the equations and then solve them both, write "OR" between both equations and that's your answer. Example: x-2=5 x-2=-5 x=3 OR x=-3 |
| How to solve an absolute value inequality. Example: |x-3|≤4 | You do the exact same thing as how to solve an absolute value equation, except you have to switch the sign around if you're dividing a negative. |
| What happens to an inequality when you multiply or divide by a negative. Example: (-x≥5)(-1) | Switch the Sign. Example: x≤-5 |
