A single point on a distance time graph tells the?
The vertical axis gives the distance of an object from a fixed point - the point of reference - after a time, as measured on the horizontal axis.
How can an absolute value equation help you calculate the distance from one point to another on the coordinate plane when the points are on the same vertical line?
The distance between them is the absolute value of the difference in their vertical coordinates.
The point where the horizontal and vertical axes inersect is called the?
origin
Which axes does time and distance place?
Conventially, time is on the x or horizontal axis, distance on the y or vertical axis, the slope of the graph at any point represents the velocity at that point.
What is a pair of numbers that can be used to find a point on a coordinate grid?
They are called the coordinates. More specifically, the one measuring the distance in the horizontal direction is the abscissa, the one in the vertical direction is the ordinate.
What is the vertical distance from the crest of a wave to the trough?
Vertical distance from a wave's highest point to it's lowest point is called the amplitude of a wave.

What is the vertical distance between the trough and crest of a wave called?
The vertical distance between trough and crest is called the height of the wave. While the crest is the highest point of a wave, the trough is the lowest point.Are you talking about waves? That simply depends on the frequency of the wave; crest and trough are just terms given to sections of waves. The crest is the top of the wave, and the trough is the bottom.It's the amplitude. Like on the drawn parts of a transverse wave. You can look it up on google images.wave hight

What means height?
the topmost point Height is the vertical distance between the bottom and top of something.
Which axes does time and distance place?
Conventially, time is on the x or horizontal axis, distance on the y or vertical axis, the slope of the graph at any point represents the velocity at that point.
What is reduced leveling?
A reduced level is the vertical distance between a survey point and the adopted level datum

They are called the coordinates. More specifically, the one measuring the distance in the horizontal direction is the abscissa, the one in the vertical direction is the ordinate.
What gives the coordinates of the location of a point?
The coordinate plane in 2-dimensional space has one point which is the origin. This point is usually denoted by the letter O and has coordinates (0, 0). There are usually two mutually perpendicular axes - one horizontal and one vertical. The first coordinate of any point is the distance of the point, in the horizontal direction, from the vertical axis. The second is its distance, in the vertical direction, from the horizontal axis. In space with 3 or more dimensions the coordinates are defined in an analogous manner.
How can an absolute value equation help you calculate the distance form one point to another on the coordinate plane when the points are on the same vertical line?
The absolute difference in the vertical direction is zero but the absolute difference in the horizontal direction will be the horizontal distance - which is the distance between the points.
What is an absolute altimeter?
An absolute altimeter is an instrument which measures vertical distance to the surface below a certain reference point.
