Solving Absolute Value Equations: A Step-by-Step Guide

Mashup Math

This educational video provides a clear, step-by-step tutorial on solving absolute value equations. It begins by refreshing the student's memory on the definition of absolute value as a number's distance from zero, emphasizing that it is always positive or zero. The video uses both algebraic reasoning and graphical representation to explain why absolute value equations typically yield two solutions—one positive and one negative case.
