G.1.2 Real World Problems graphing points

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

In the coordinate point (x, y), what does 'x' represent?

Back

The 'x' value represents the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

In the coordinate point (x, y), what does 'y' represent?

Back

The 'y' value represents the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

How do you determine the direction to travel from one point to another on a coordinate plane?

Back

You find the difference in the x-coordinates for east/west direction and the difference in the y-coordinates for north/south direction.

Front

What is a coordinate point?

Back

A coordinate point is a pair of numbers (x, y) that defines a specific location on a coordinate plane.

Front

What does the point (3, 5) indicate in terms of movement?

Back

It indicates moving 3 units to the right (east) and 5 units up (north) from the origin.

Front

What is the distance between the points (1, 1) and (1, 4)?

Back

The distance is 3 units, moving straight up along the y-axis.

Front

If a point is located at (2, 3), what are its coordinates?

Back

The coordinates are 2 units along the x-axis and 3 units along the y-axis.

Front

What is the slope of a line connecting the points (2, 3) and (4, 7)?

Back

The slope is 2, calculated as (7-3)/(4-2).

Front

What does it mean for points to be collinear?

Back

Collinear points lie on the same straight line.
