Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

How do you identify a point on a coordinate plane?

Back

To identify a point, use its ordered pair (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What does it mean for numbers to be in order from least to greatest?

Back

It means arranging numbers starting from the smallest value to the largest value.

Front

What is the opposite of a number?

Back

The opposite of a number is the number that is the same distance from zero on the number line but in the opposite direction.

Front

What is the distance between two points on a coordinate grid?

Back

The distance can be calculated using the distance formula: d = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What is the coordinate of a point?

Back

The coordinate of a point is a set of values that show the position of the point on a coordinate plane, typically written as (x, y).

Front

What is the significance of the x-axis and y-axis in a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line, and the y-axis is the vertical line that intersect at the origin (0,0), helping to define the location of points.

Front

How do you find the distance between two points with the same y-coordinate?

Back

If two points have the same y-coordinate, the distance is the absolute difference between their x-coordinates.

Front

What is the value of the opposite of 0?

Back

The opposite of 0 is 0, as it is its own opposite.

Front

How do you plot the point (-3, 6) on a coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin (0,0), move left 3 units (for -3), and then move up 6 units (for 6).
