Patterns on the Coordinate Plane

Is the picture showing an additive or a multiplicative relationship?

• Additive

• Multiplicative

The table shows how many points Joaquin and Jerome scored during 4 basketball games. Which best describes the pattern shown in the table?

• It is an additive pattern because the point (0,0) fits the pattern.

• It is a multiplicative pattern because Jerome’s points are multiplied by 6 to find Joaquin’s points.

• It is a multiplicative pattern because Jerome’s points are doubled to find Joaquin’s points.

• It is an additive pattern because 6 is added to Jerome’s points to find Joaquin’s points.

Which pattern line goes through the ORIGIN (0,0) on a coordinate grid?

• Multiplicative

• Additive

Answer explanation

If your X coordinate is 0, no matter what the multiplicative rule is, your Y coordinate will equal 0 too. **ANYTHING times 0 = 0.**

What are the coordinates of point A?

• (0,1)

• (1, 1)

• (2, 1) 

• (1, 0)

Name the ordered pair for point C.

• (3,4)

• (4,3)

• (3,7)

• (4,7)
