✨ What Is an Absolute Value Equation?

An absolute value equation is an equation that contains an absolute value expression, usually written in the form:

∣ax+b∣=c

Absolute value represents the distance of a number from zero on the number line. Because distance is never negative, absolute value equations behave differently from normal linear equations and can have two solutions, one solution, or no solution.

This calculator helps you solve such equations accurately without confusion.

🚀 Why Use This Calculator?

Solving absolute value equations manually requires understanding multiple cases and careful algebra. This tool eliminates mistakes by:

✔ Automatically handling all possible cases
✔ Showing correct real solutions every time
✔ Saving time in exams, homework, and practice
✔ Making learning easier for beginners

Whether you are studying algebra or revising concepts, this calculator gives instant clarity.

🧮 How This Calculator Works

The calculator follows the mathematical rules of absolute value equations:

🔹 Case 1: No Solution

If c < 0, then

∣ax+b∣=c

has no solution, because absolute value can never be negative.

🔹 Case 2: One Solution

If c = 0, then

ax+b=0

This produces one real solution.

🔹 Case 3: Two Solutions

If c > 0, the equation splits into two linear equations:

ax+b=c or ax+b=−c

The calculator solves both automatically and displays the results clearly.

📌 Example Problems

Equation	Solution
\|x − 3\| = 5	x = 8 or x = −2
\|2x + 4\| = 0	x = −2
\|x + 1\| = −3	No solution

These examples demonstrate how absolute value equations can behave differently depending on the value of c.
