1­5 Absolute Value Equations & Inequalities
Know properties of inequalities. Know how to identify extraneous solutions.
Understand­how to apply the concept of dividing by a negative in an inequality situation to develop your skills at solving absolute value inequalities.
1. Graph y = ­3x + 2
2. Graph y ­ 5 = 7 ­ x
Do­ Solve absolute value equations and inequalities. Remember you must check solutions to inequalities....there are sometimes EXTRANEOUS SOLUTIONS!
