Lesson: Absolute Value Equations Mathematics

In this lesson, we will learn how to solve equations involving the absolute value.

Lesson Plan

Objectives

Students will be able to

  • find the solution set of equations which involve the absolute value of an expression in one variable,
  • find the solution set of equations which involve more than one absolute value expression (in the same variable),
  • sketch graphs in order to solve absolute value equations.

Prerequisites

Students should already be familiar with

  • solving linear equations.

Exclusions

Students will not cover

  • absolute value inequalities,
  • the absolute value of expression in more than one variable,
  • piecewise-defined functions.
