What is the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis), used to locate points using ordered pairs (x, y).

How do you plot the point (4, -6) on the coordinate plane?

Back

To plot the point (4, -6), move 4 units to the right along the x-axis and then 6 units down along the y-axis.

What is the significance of the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, serving as the reference point for all other points on the coordinate plane.

What is the distance between the points (1, 2) and (4, 6)?

Back

The distance between the points (1, 2) and (4, 6) can be calculated using the distance formula: √((4-1)² + (6-2)²) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5.

What is the slope of a line that passes through the points (2, 3) and (5, 7)?

Back

The slope of a line is calculated as (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). For the points (2, 3) and (5, 7), the slope is (7 - 3) / (5 - 2) = 4 / 3.

How do you determine the coordinates of a point given its location in relation to the axes?

Back

To determine the coordinates of a point, identify how far it is from the x-axis (y-coordinate) and how far it is from the y-axis (x-coordinate).
