You explained more about graphing absolute value functions in just over 10 minutes than my Algebra 1 teacher did in 3 days. Studying for a chapter test right now, and your video really saved my butt! Keep them coming!
Anh Khoa Nguyễn Hồ You can pick any number for the domain. The key is making sure you find the vertex. The lines on either side will extend forever in each direction. I hope that helps! Keep working hard! You can do it! :-)
Oh my god. I was so stressed and frustrated, I was bawling. And here I find you, explaining this stuff perfectly clearly. You SAVED me. Thank you SO MUCH. Words can't explain how much I wanna hug the life out of you right now.
OMG!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!!! I was SO lost and now I get it. This is going on my cheat sheet for sure! This is the BEST video I found and I actually pay for a math tutorial site! Thanks again!!
I agree with Justin below. These videos are great! You're very thorough and conscious of where students might make simple mistakes. Keep them coming dude.
OMG I had a math test on this and my math teacher is literally stupid, went and got the easiest 100 of my life on that test thanks to you and I now fully understand this topic. Thank you so much!
Let's not rip on teachers! I am one! :-) You understand because you worked at it and found something that made sense to you! That's awesome! You're welcome and keep working hard!! :-)
My gosh, I wish you were my professor. Gosh, Its two weeks and ppl only show up to not get dropped. Yes, Im serious. He cant solve the math, but cant explain how he got the answer. Thank you.
thank you i have math exam next week and I am stressing out and struggling so much this is helping me more than my teacher I never understood something from her
My prof is also a high school teacher and treats her college students as though we already know this stuff without being taught, as though she;s merely giving us a review. If I knew it already why would I be in this class? I'd be in Calculus 1 if I already knew Algebra 2/ Pre-calc. Thank you for teaching what she refuses to. I might be able to pass the class if you've posted enough videos to do the job I'm paying her to do.
I don't graph them like that, I'd just graph |x-4| first which is just the line y=x-4 but in a V shape. Then I would translate that up 1 unit. As for something like 4 - |x-5|, I would graph |x-5| first, then reflect it in the x-axis to give the graph of -|x-5|, then finally translate it up 4 units
Who else has horrible grades in Algebra... See I don't see why math teachers don't explain things like this! Instead of taking a week to explain something that we will forget, explain it in 10 minutes so we will seriously remember it and not get bored of being fed the same information everyday!
light reflection are also following these graph property since angle of incident is equally as angle of reflection to the normal so mature nature's also behave like a true person, tit for tat, shathatham shathyam shathayati, jaisey ko taisa, give and take, absolutely right, rays are reflected by any surface to it's normal
No, an absolute value graph is made up of two straight lines in a v-shape. A parabola has a curve. If you make a table of values for an absolute value and a quadratic equation, you'll notice a different pattern in the y-values of each, resulting in the different shapes. I hope that helps! :-)
It's similar, but the graph will open down instead of up. Whatever number comes out of the absolute value becomes negative. I hope that helps! Keep working at it! You can do it! :-)
