A-Level CAIE Mathematics AS 2.1.1—Modulus equations Question Bank

• understand the meaning of |x|, sketch the graph of y = |ax + b| and use relations such as |a| = |b| ⇔ a2 = b2 and |x - a| < b ⇔ a - b < x < a + b when solving equations and inequalities Graphs of y = |f(x)| and y = f(|x|) for non-linear functions f are not included. e.g. |3x - 2| = |2x + 7|, 2x + 5 < |x + 1|.
