140 Chapter 2 Linear Equations and Inequalities in One Variable SECTION 2.6 Absolute Value Equations 37. The absolute value of a number is its from zero on the number line. 38. The absolute value of any real number is . 39. If uXu = k, k > 0, then or . 40. If uXu = 0, then . 41. If uXu = k, k < 0, then there is . 42. To solve an absolute value equation, we must first the absolute value on one side of the equation. 43. If uXu = uYu, then or . That is, the expressions inside the absolute value must be the or . 44. The is the absolute value of the difference between the measured value and the exact value. SECTION 2.7 Absolute Value Inequalities 45. Solving uXu < k, k > 0 is equivalent to solving the compound inequality . This can be written in a compact form, . 46. Solving uXu > k, k > 0 is equivalent to solving the compound inequality . 47. If uXu < k, k < 0, then there is . 48. If uXu > k, k < 0, then the solution set is . 49. Another method to solve absolute value inequalities involves using .
