Front

What is the absolute value of a number?

Back

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. For example, the absolute value of -3 is 3.

Front

How do you represent a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

A point on the coordinate plane is represented by an ordered pair (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What does the ordered pair (-6, 4) represent?

Back

The ordered pair (-6, 4) represents a point located 6 units to the left of the origin and 4 units up on the coordinate plane.

Front

If a point is located at (3, -2), what does the -2 indicate?

Back

The -2 indicates that the point is 2 units down from the x-axis on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the result of moving 3 units east from the point (-6, 4)?

Back

Moving 3 units east from (-6, 4) results in the point (-3, 4).

Front

What is the inequality that compares -3 and 1?

Back

The inequality that compares -3 and 1 is 1 > -3.

Front

What integer represents a loss of 14 pounds?

Back

A loss of 14 pounds is represented by the integer -14.

Front

What is the coordinate of the origin on the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinate of the origin is (0, 0).

Front
