You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\"abs%28c-4%29%3E1\"Since the absolute value of a positive and a negative number is that same number but always positive, you can write an absolute value expression like \"abs%28x%29=a\" as this \"x=a\" and \"x=-a\" So this problem can be written as
\n" ); document.write( "\"-1%3Ec-4%3E1\"Now we can solve for c
\n" ); document.write( "\"-1%2B4%3Ec%3E1%2B4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%3Ec%3E5\"
\n" ); document.write( "Which finally looks like
\n" ); document.write( "\"c%3C3_and_c%3E5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-1%2C+10%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+abs%28x-4%29%2C1%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "For the graph you would shade above y=1 and below \"y=abs%28x-4%29\" (we let c=x). So shade in between the green and the red lines; however, don't shade in the middle triangle, since the \"abs%28x-4%29\" is not greater than 1 in this region.
