Expressions with Absolute Value
Evaluate |a – 7| + 15 if a = 5.
|a – 7| + 15 = |5 – 7| + 15 Replace a with 5.
= |–2| + 15 5 – 7 = –2
= 2 + 15 |–2| = 2
= 17 Simplify.

Solve Absolute Value Equations
A. Solve |2x – 1| = 7. Then graph the solution set.
|2x – 1| = 7 Original equation
Case 1 Case 2
2x – 1 = 7 2x – 1 = –7
2x – 1 + 1 = 7 + 1 Add 1 to each side. 2x – 1 + 1 = –7 + 1
2x = 8 Simplify. 2x = –6
Divide each side by 2.
x = 4 Simplify. x = –3
Solve Absolute Value Equations
B. Solve |p + 6| = –5. Then graph the solution set.
|p + 6| = –5 means the distance between p and 6 is –5. Since distance cannot be negative, the solution is the empty set Ø.

Solve an Absolute Value Equation
WEATHER The average January temperature in a northern Canadian city is 1°F. The actual January temperature for that city may be about 5°F warmer or colder. Write and solve an equation to find the maximum and minimum temperatures.
Method 1 Graphing
|t – 1| = 5 means that the distance between t and 1 is 5 units. To find t on the number line, start at 1 and move 5 units in either direction.
Solve an Absolute Value Equation
The solution set is {–4, 6}.
The distance from 1 to 6 is 5 units.
The distance from 1 to –4 is 5 units.
Method 2 Compound Sentence
Write |t –1| = 5 as t – 1 = 5 or t – 1 = –5.
Answer: The solution set is {–4, 6}. The range of temperatures is –4°F to 6°F.
Case 1 Case 2t – 1 = 5 t – 1 = –5
t – 1 + 1 = 5 + 1 Add 1 to each side.
t – 1 + 1 = –5 + 1
t = 6 Simplify. t = –4
