To show: The function
Explanation of Solution
Definition used:
An absolute function
Proof:
Rewrite the function
Use the definition of absolute value function to define the function
The left hand derivative at
Since
Thus,
The right hand derivative at
Since
Thus,
From the equation (1) and (2),
This implies that, the value of
Therefore, the function
Hence, the required proof is obtained.
Now find the formula of derivative of
From equation (1) and (2),
This implies that, the function
Thus the required derivative function is,
Graph:
Use the above information to draw the graph of
Thus,
