It consists of two line rays (or line segments), one with positive slope and one with negative slope , joined at the vertex or cusp .
::可以看到绝对值函数的图形产生一个大的“V”。 它由两线射线(或线段段)组成,一线射线为正斜度,一线为负斜度,在顶部或顶部加入。We’ve already seen that to solve an absolute value equation we need to consider two options:
::为了解决一个绝对价值方程式, 我们需要考虑两种选择:-
The
expression
inside the absolute value is not negative.
::绝对值中的表达式不是负值。 -
The expression inside the absolute value is negative.
::绝对值内的表达式为负值。
Combining these two options gives us the two parts of the graph.
::结合这两个选项后,我们可以看到图表的两部分。For instance, in the above example, the expression inside the absolute value sign is . By definition, this expression is nonnegative when , which is to say when . When the expression inside the absolute value sign is nonnegative, we can just drop the absolute value sign. So for all values of greater than or equal to 1, the equation is just .
::例如,在上述例子中,绝对值符号内的表达式为x-1。根据定义,这种表达式在 x-10 时是非负的,也就是说在 x=1 时是非负的。当绝对值符号内的表达式是非负的时,我们只需降低绝对值符号。因此,对于X大于或等于1的所有值,等式只是y=x-1。On the other hand, when — in other words, when — the expression inside the absolute value sign is negative. That means we have to drop the absolute value sign but also multiply the expression by -1. So for all values of less than 1, the equation is , or .
::另一方面,当 x - 1 < 0 - 换句话说, 当 x < 1 - 时, 绝对值符号内的表达为负值时。 这意味着我们必须降低绝对值符号, 但也将表达数乘以 - 1 。 因此, 对于所有不小于 1 的 x 1 值来说, 等式是 y (x-1) 或 yx+ 1 。These are both graphs of straight lines, as shown above. They meet at the point where — that is, at .
::这些是上面所示的两条直线的图形。 它们相交于 x-1=0 点, 即 x=1 点。We can graph absolute value functions by breaking them down algebraically as we just did, or we can graph them using a table of values. However, when the absolute value equation is linear, the easiest way to graph it is to combine those two techniques, as follows:
::我们可以像我们刚才那样,通过将绝对值函数分解为代数来绘制绝对值函数,或者用一个数值表来绘制这些函数。然而,当绝对值方程式是线性时,最简单的图表方法是将这两种技术结合起来,具体如下:-
Find the vertex of the graph by setting the expression inside the absolute value equal to zero and solving for
.
::通过在绝对值内设定等于零的表达式并解析 x 来查找图形的顶点。 -
Make a table of values that includes the vertex, a value smaller than the vertex, and a value larger than the vertex. Calculate the corresponding values of
using the equation of the function.
::制作包含顶点、小于顶点的值和大于顶点的值的表格。使用函数的方程式计算 y 的相应值。 -
Plot the points and connect them with two straight lines that meet at the vertex.
::用在顶端相会的两条直线绘制点并连接它们。
