Coordinate Grid and Graph Stories

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.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to represent a point on a coordinate grid, written in the form (x, y).

Front

Which axis runs horizontally?

Back

The x-axis runs horizontally on the coordinate grid.

Front

Which axis runs vertically?

Back

The y-axis runs vertically on the coordinate grid.

Front

In the ordered pair (x, y), what does 'x' represent?

Back

'x' represents the horizontal position on the coordinate grid.

Front

In the ordered pair (x, y), what does 'y' represent?

Back

'y' represents the vertical position on the coordinate grid.

Front

What is the correct way to write an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is written in the format (x, y) with a comma separating the two numbers.

Front

What point is represented by the ordered pair (3, 5)?

Back

The point (3, 5) is located 3 units along the x-axis and 5 units up the y-axis.

Front

How do you identify the x-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate is the first number in the ordered pair (x, y).

Front

How do you identify the y-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate is the second number in the ordered pair (x, y).
