|y|=|x| graph please

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

any attempt ?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

you have to take 4 cases, 1 for rach quadrant

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

each*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and yeah i have no idea where to start

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[|y|=\begin{cases}y&\text{for }y\ge0\\-y&\text{for }y<0\end{cases}\] \[|x|=\begin{cases}x&\text{for }x\ge0\\-x&\text{for }x<0\end{cases}\] A point in the first quadrant has \(x,y>0\), so \(|y|=y\) and \(|x|=x\). And so on for the other three quadrants.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i still dont ge tit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In the first quadrant, every point \((x,y)\) is determined by the equation \(|y|=|x|\), which we showed is equivalent to \(y=x\). |dw:1372522271256:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In the second quadrant, you have negatives values of \(x\) and positive values of \(y\), which means \(|x|=-x\) and \(|y|=y\), so you every point is determined by the equation \(y=-x\):|dw:1372522350605:dw|
