The Absolute Value Function
abs (   )

How do we work with absolute value on this calculator?

There are two ways to deal with the absolute value function on this calculator. 

 
Method 1:
Press the Template Button
(next to the "book") and select the absolute value template (right end of top row).

 


Method 2: 
You can also type the letters "abs" directly from the alphabet keypad, followed by a left parenthesis. Enter expression and close parenthesis.

This method can be used in both "Calculate" and "Graph" applications.
 

The "abs(-25)" will be transformed to | -2.5| when you hit .
