An absolute mean is a mean of the absolute magnitude of a function with both positive and negative values.
false!
The positive regions of a function are those intervals where the function is above the x-axis. It is where the y-values are positive (not zero). The negative regions of a function are those intervals where the function is below the x-axis. It is where the y-values are negative (not zero).
y² = x --> y = ±√x Because there are *two* square roots for any positive number (positive and negative) this will not be a function.
A function is positive on an interval, say, the interval from x=a to x=b, if algebraically, all the y-coordinate values are positive on this interval; and graphically, the entire curve or line lies above the x-axis.on this interval.
