Good morning Algebra students:

Today your goal is to create an Algebra quick sheet that tells all about Absolute Value. You must list the following:

  • title
  • definition with picture
  • three basic examples using just the absolute value sign (not the variables)
  • Steps for solving absolute value with equations (chapter 1)
  • Steps for solving absolute value in inequalitites (chapter 2)
  • SOlve 2 equations and 2 inequalities showing all work. Afterward explain how the two problem are similar and different.
  • Play one game from below. When you are finished rate the game from 0-5 (5 is the highest). Tell what you liked and did not like about the game and why you gave it the rating you did.
