Learn How To Solve an Absolute Value Equation by Isolating the ABS Sign

Learn how to solve absolute value equations with multiple steps. Absolute value of a number is the positive value of the number. For instance, the absolute value of 2 is 2 and the absolute value of -2 is also 2. To solve an absolute value equation where there are more terms apart from the absolute value term in the same side of the equality sign as the absolute value term, we first isolate the absolute value term. i.e. make the absolute value term the subject of the formular.

After isolating the absolute value term, we now separate the equation into the positive and the negative cases and then solve accordingly.

Are quadratic equations considered to be absolute value in nature?
