absolute value function

[absolute value function|absolute value function] is a mathematical function that quantifies the distance of a number from zero on a number line, representing its magnitude without regard to direction.

Definition

absolute value function is a mathematical function that quantifies the distance of a number from zero on a number line, representing its magnitude without regard to direction.

Mechanism

absolute value function The absolute value function's mechanism involves determining the domain and range for the given function. In its basic form, f(x) = |x|, it is part of the toolkit functions used to find these properties.

Examples

absolute value function In the toolkit functions, the absolute value function f ( x ) = | x | is introduced as an example.
