Unit 1 Flashcard (integers and Coordinate Plane)

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you identify an ordered pair on a coordinate plane?

Back

An ordered pair is written as (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What does it mean to move left on a coordinate plane?

Back

Moving left means decreasing the x-coordinate value.

Front

What does it mean to move up on a coordinate plane?

Back

Moving up means increasing the y-coordinate value.

Front

What is the value of the ordered pair (-4, 7)?

Back

The x-coordinate is -4 and the y-coordinate is 7.

Front

Which quadrant contains positive x and positive y values?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

What is the distance between two points on a number line?

Back

The distance is the absolute difference between their values.
