How Do I Graph Absolute Functions?

Can I Graph Absolute Value Functions?

Applies to: Flex Editor & Slide Editor


Not yet. The Graphing question can’t plot absolute value functions in either editor. If you’d like this added, email support@classwork.com.


What Graphing can do

On a Four Quadrant Graph or a Data / One Quadrant Graph, students can plot or select points, and plot lines, inequalities, parabolas and exponentials.


Graphing window: 1, the Four Quadrant Graph options; 2, the Data / One Quadrant Graph options


Matching equations covers Linear, Quadratic and Exponential equations only.


Matching equations offers Linear, Quadratic and Exponential


Workaround: for an absolute value function, use Plotting points. Ask students to plot the vertex and a few points on each side, and add those points to the answer key.
