Coordinate Grids

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate grid?

Back

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

Front

What does an ordered pair represent in a coordinate grid?

Back

An ordered pair represents a specific point on the coordinate grid, with the first number indicating the x-coordinate and the second number indicating the y-coordinate.

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a coordinate grid where the y-coordinate is 0.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a coordinate grid where the x-coordinate is 0.

Front

How do you identify a point on a coordinate grid?

Back

A point is identified by its ordered pair (x, y), where x is the distance from the y-axis and y is the distance from the x-axis.

Front

What is the coordinate of point A if it is located 3 units right and 2 units up from the origin?

Back

The coordinate of point A is (3, 2).

Front

If a point has coordinates (4, 5), what is its x-coordinate?

Back

The x-coordinate is 4.

Front

If a point has coordinates (4, 5), what is its y-coordinate?

Back

The y-coordinate is 5.

Front

What does it mean to move 1 mile east and 4 miles north on a coordinate grid?

Back

Moving 1 mile east means increasing the x-coordinate by 1, and moving 4 miles north means increasing the y-coordinate by 4.

Front

What is the distance between the points (2, 3) and (2, 7) on a coordinate grid?

Back

The distance is 4 units, as they share the same x-coordinate.
