4.06: Modulus graph and function
(a)[3]
Sketch \(y=|x^2-5|\), stating the intercepts with the coordinate axes.
See the official mark scheme below.
(b)[4]
\(f(x)=ax+b\), where \(a\) and \(b\) are non-zero integers. The solutions of \(|f(x)|=4\) are \(x=2.5\) and \(x=-1.5\). Find the possible functions \(f\).
