The graph of that function looks like a big letter ' V '. The point of the 'V' is at the origin,
the left half has slope = -3, and the right half has slope = 3.

The absolute value of a function changes the original function by ensuring that any negative y values will in essence be positive. For instance, the function y = absolute value (x) will yield the value +1 when x equals -1. Graphically, this function will look like a "V".
No. The absolute value of the sin function cannot exceed 1.
The absolute value of -15 is 15. (any number in absolute value is positive.)
No because absolute value of negative 8 equals to positive 8
It means that the value of the function at any point "x" is the same as the value of the function at the negative of "x". The graph of the function is thus symmetrical around the y-axis. Examples of such functions are the absolute value, the cosine function, and the function defined by y = x2.
