5.4C and 5.8C Generating a number pattern, coordinate grids

Front

What is a coordinate grid?

Back

A coordinate grid is a two-dimensional plane formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis), used to locate points using ordered pairs (x, y).

Front

What are coordinates?

Back

Coordinates are a set of values that show an exact position on a coordinate grid, typically written as (x, y).

Front

What is the origin on a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the coordinates (0, 0).

Front

How do you read coordinates?

Back

To read coordinates, start with the x-value (horizontal position) and then the y-value (vertical position). For example, (3, 4) means move 3 units right and 4 units up.

Front

What does it mean to 'run then jump' in coordinate grids?

Back

'Run then jump' is a mnemonic to remember that you move along the x-axis (run) first, then move up or down along the y-axis (jump) to locate a point.

Front

What is a number pattern?

Back

A number pattern is a sequence of numbers that follow a specific rule or formula, such as adding or multiplying by a certain number.

Front

What is the rule for the pattern: 2, 4, 8, 16?

Back

The rule is to multiply by 2.

Front

How do you find the coordinates of a point on a grid?

Back

To find the coordinates of a point, identify its horizontal position (x) and vertical position (y) based on the grid lines.

Front

What are the coordinates for the point located 3 units right and 2 units up from the origin?

Back

The coordinates are (3, 2).

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a coordinate grid where the y-coordinate is 0.
