A Visual Approach to Absolute Value.

Arcidiacono, Michael J.

Mathematics Teacher, v76 n3 p197-201 Mar 1983

The approach discussed intuitively illustrates how a problem can be analyzed by breaking it down into parts. The method makes extensive use of graphs of absolute value functions and is broken down into three stages. Each stage is covered in some detail. (MP)
