Unit 9 Flashcards
Name of Quadrants
QI, QII, QIII, QIV
Starts in upper right and goes counter clockwise
Names for The Grid
Coordinate Grid
Coordinate Plane
Cartesian Plane
Coordinate System
Quadrant with both positive values
QI
Quadrant with a negative x and positive y
QII
Quadrant with both negative values
QIII
Quadrant with a negative y and positive x value
QIV
Origin
the starting point of the Cartisian Plane, (0,0)
X axis
the horizontal line, step #1 to find the point
Y axis
the vertical line in the Cartesian Plane, step #2 for finding the point
Ordered Pair
(x, y) the pair of numbers that tells you the point on The Plane
Quadrant of (3, -2)
QIV
Quadrant of (-3, 2)
QII
First Way to Graph Coordinate Pairs
xy chart: 1. find the equation 2. find the x (or y) values 3. plug and chug the x (or y) values into the equation 4. use your answer as the other coordinate for the pair 5. graph and draw a line EX. y=2x x -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 y -4, -2, 0, 2, 4
Second Way to Graph Coordinate Pairs
x and y intersect: 1. plug in 0 for the opposite value you are solving for using the equation given 2. graph your answer 3. repeat steps 1 and 2 once 4. draw a line connecting the two EX. y=2x + 1 y = 1 x = 1
Where is the x intercept?
Anywhere on the x axis
