Go to the Wolfram Alpha site and type the following in the input box:
|x|
That is a result of an absolute value equation. So an Absolute Value Graph
No.
It is sometimes the point where the value inside the absolute function is zero.
y = |x| - 2
the absolute value of any number is always the positive value of that number absolute value of 0.4 = 0.4
That is a result of an absolute value equation. So an Absolute Value Graph
No.

It is sometimes the point where the value inside the absolute function is zero.
To find an absolute value equation from a graph, first identify the vertex of the graph, which represents the point where the absolute value function changes direction. Then, determine the slope of the lines on either side of the vertex to find the coefficients. The general form of the absolute value equation is ( y = a |x - h| + k ), where ((h, k)) is the vertex and (a) indicates the steepness and direction of the graph. Finally, use additional points on the graph to solve for (a) if needed.

The absolute value of the difference.
Neither statement is true. The graph of the absolute value of a function which is always non-negative will be the same as that of the original function and this need not open in any direction. Also, the graph of y = abs[x*(x-1)*(x+2)] is not symmetrical so there is no coefficient which will determine a line of symmetry.
