absolute value of a number is the square root of that number squared:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"abs%28x%29+=+sqrt%28x%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"abs%28x+-+2%29+=+sqrt%28%28x+-+2%29%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%28%28x+-+2%29%5E2%29+%3E+0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x+-+2%29%5E2+%3E+0+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "x - 2 > +0 and x - 2 < -0
\n" ); document.write( "x - 2 > 0 and x - 2 < 0
\n" ); document.write( "x > 2 and x < 2
\n" ); document.write( "All real numbers except for two. \n" ); document.write( "
