Absolute value: math exercises in 2nd grade corrected in PDF.

The absolute value of a number allows us to consider a number without taking into account its sign. More precisely, if a number x is positive, then the absolute value of x is x. However, if x is negative, then the absolute value of x is its opposite, i.e. -x. With second grade math exercises on absolute value, you will develop new skills.

f) 3 < | x + 2 | < 4

g) | 4 x²– 12 x + 9 | = 4

h) | 3 x + 1 | + | 1 – x | > 3

i) | 1 + x²| =2x

a) b)

c) $\frac{%7C5-8%7C-3}{2}$ d)

Exercise 4:

1.a) On a graduated line, place the numbers 5 and $\frac{1}{3}$ .

b) Calculate the distance between 5 and $\frac{1}{3}$ .

2. Repeat question 1. with 3 and $-\frac{4}{5}$ .

3. Repeat question 1. with -1 and $-\frac{4}{5}$ .

Exercise 5:

Using an absolute value, write the distance between :

a) $\frac{125}{3}$ and 2. b) $\sqrt{2}$ and 5

c) – 5 and $\frac{12}{5}$ d) $\pi$ and 4

Exercise 6:

without calculator, simplify :

a) $%7C5-\pi%7C$ b) $%7C8-\frac{2}{3}%7C$ c) $%7C2-\frac{9}{2}%7C$

d) e) $%7C-5-\pi%7C$ f) $%7C\frac{1}{2}+6%7C$

Exercise 7:

In the same way that represents the distance between the real number and 3,

express in terms of distance :

a) b) $%7Cx-\frac{1}{3}%7C$

c) d)

e) f) $%7C\pi-x%7C$

Exercise 8:

Determine the set, in interval form, of real numbers verifying :

a) $%7C%7Cx-10%7C\leq\,\,1$ b) $%7Cx-2,5%7C\leq\,\,0,2$ c) $%7Cx-\frac{1}{2}%7C\leq\,\,\frac{5}{2}$

Exercise 9:

Consider an interval [a ; b] with a and b two real numbers.

The center of the interval [a ; b] is the number $c=\frac{a+b}{2}$
and radius of the interval [a ; b] the number $r=\frac{b-a}{2}$ .
Graphically, we have :

1. a) Calculate the center and radius of [2; 6].

b) Translate |x – 4| in terms of the distance between two real numbers.
c) Copy and complete: $x\in%5B2;6%5D\Leftrightarrow\,%7Cx-4%7C\leq\,\,...$

2. In the same way, copy and complete :
a) $x\in%5B1;25%5D\Leftrightarrow\,%7Cx-13%7C\leq\,\,...$ .
b) $x\in%5B6;20%5D\Leftrightarrow\,%7Cx-...%7C\leq\,\,...$
c) $x\in%5B1,2;3%5D\Leftrightarrow\,%7Cx-...%7C\leq\,\,...$

Exercise 10:

Write an inequality verified by and using an absolute value in the following cases.
