Question 830420: hey can i find the range of x/(abs(x))

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=x%2F%28abs%28x%29%29
The only value of x that will cause a problem is for x=0
which would cause division by zero.
for all positive values of x, x%2F%28abs%28x%29%29= 1
and for all negative values of x, x%2F%28abs%28x%29%29= -1
so the range is 1, -1
