About

North American Grade Level Rating: 10th GRADE + However a highly motivated younger learn should have no trouble! Absolute Value is a very tricky topic that is extremly tedious and challenging. Due to this, it is frequently taught poorly and students lack a understanding of the topic. This series will address that issue by explaning absolute value to the best of my abilities. We will visualise graphs of absolute value, tables involving side change and solve expressions involving absolute value.

Something that is really important before solving equations and inequalities involving absolute value is have a solid understanding of intervals and it's various functions (such as union and intersection). In this session we will learn the above to prepare ourselves for future sessions.
