Plot Points 2

Front

What is a plot point?

Back

A plot point is a specific point on a graph defined by an ordered pair (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The first number in an ordered pair represents the x-axis.

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The second number in an ordered pair represents the y-axis.

Front

How do you find the slope of a line given two points?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the slope of the line that passes through (2, 4) and (6, 12)?

Back

The slope is 2, calculated as (12 - 4) / (6 - 2) = 8 / 4 = 2.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point M if it is located at x=3 and y=5?

Back

The ordered pair for point M is (3, 5).

Front

What is the ordered pair for point F if it is located at x=1 and y=2?

Back

The ordered pair for point F is (1, 2).

Front

What is the ordered pair for point D if it is located at x=2 and y=1?

Back

The ordered pair for point D is (2, 1).

Front

What is the difference between the x-axis and y-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a graph, while the y-axis is the vertical line.

Front

What is an example of an ordered pair?

Back

An example of an ordered pair is (4, 3), where 4 is the x-coordinate and 3 is the y-coordinate.
