An absolute value is the distance of a number from zero on a number line. It is always a positive number, regardless of the sign of the original number.
To find the absolute value of a number, you can simply remove the negative sign if it exists. Alternatively, you can use the absolute value function in most scientific calculators, which is denoted by "|" around the number.
A continuous function is a function whose graph is an unbroken curve with no gaps or holes. This means that there are no sudden jumps or breaks in the graph, and every point on the graph is connected.
A function is continuous if it satisfies three conditions: 1) the function is defined at the point, 2) the limit of the function at that point exists, and 3) the limit of the function at that point is equal to the value of the function at that point. If all three conditions are met, the function is continuous.
No, a continuous function cannot have a vertical asymptote. A vertical asymptote occurs when the function approaches infinity or negative infinity at a certain point, which would create a break in the graph and violate the condition of continuity.
