4 Quadrant Graphing

Front

What is a 4 Quadrant Graph?

Back

A 4 Quadrant Graph is a coordinate plane divided into four sections (quadrants) by the x-axis and y-axis, used to plot points based on their coordinates.

Front

What are the coordinates of a point?

Back

Coordinates are a pair of numbers (x, y) that define the position of a point on a graph, where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What does the x-axis represent?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a graph that represents the values of the independent variable.

Front

What does the y-axis represent?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a graph that represents the values of the dependent variable.

Front

How do you determine the distance between two points on a graph?

Back

The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be calculated using the formula: Distance = |x2 - x1| + |y2 - y1|.

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

How many units are between -2 and -6?

Back

There are 4 units between -2 and -6.

Front

What is the significance of the origin in a 4 Quadrant Graph?

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 graph.

Front

What quadrant is (3, -2) located in?

Back

(3, -2) is located in Quadrant IV, where x is positive and y is negative.

Front

What quadrant is (-4, 5) located in?

Back

(-4, 5) is located in Quadrant II, where x is negative and y is positive.
