graphing absolute values

Well my fellow peers today we learned about all the uses that the smart sync program has, which mostly seem to be making sure we do what we are supposed to during the class. We also worked on graphing absolute values. The real short way that absolute values work is that if you have f(x) graphed the absolute value of f(x) has it so that when the y value is about to become less than zero the value then bounces so that y is always positive. like wise when graphing the reciprocal function of an absolute value graph the absolute and then use Max's famous, well semi famous rule of inverses "greatering equals lessering and vise versa"




















and here is a couple of site with online graphing calculators. Also remember to do questions 1-12 on exercise 11.
