Coordinate Plane and Patterns

Front

What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis). Each point on the plane is defined by an ordered pair of numbers (x, y).

Front

What does the term 'origin' refer to in 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 identify the coordinates of a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinates of a point are identified as an ordered pair (x, y), where 'x' indicates the horizontal position and 'y' indicates the vertical position.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean to move 'right' on the coordinate plane?

Back

Moving 'right' on the coordinate plane means increasing the x-coordinate while keeping the y-coordinate the same.

Front

What does it mean to move 'up' on the coordinate plane?

Back

Moving 'up' on the coordinate plane means increasing the y-coordinate while keeping the x-coordinate the same.

Front

What is a pattern in mathematics?

Back

A pattern is a sequence of numbers or shapes that follows a specific rule or formula.

Front

If a pattern starts at 0 and the rule is 'Add 3', what are the first three numbers in the pattern?

Back

0, 3, 6.

Front

If a pattern starts at 0 and the rule is 'Add 5', what is the third number in the pattern?

Back

10.

What is the difference between Stacy's and Justin's patterns if Stacy adds 2 and Justin adds 4?

Back

The third number in Justin's pattern is double the number in Stacy's pattern.
