Why should you always start at the origin 00 when graphing a point?
newtest3newdiv
What if your friend is graphing the point (25) . Her first step is to start at the origin and go up 2 2 units. Is her method correct?
To graph the point (2, 5) - if that's what you mean - you need to start from the origin, and go 2 units to the right, and 5 up. You can also go 5 units up first, and THEN 2 units to the right. You can even go part of the way to the right (for instance, 1 unit), then some units up, and then later go the remaining unit to the right. But in this case, you need to keep track of how many units you already walked in each direction.
Is there a corner to the universe?
Not if the current theories about its origin and developments are correct.
What are two perpendicular number lines or axes used for graphing ordered pairs of numbers?
They are the x and y axes on the Cartesian plane that intersect each at right angles at the point of origin which is (0, 0)
What are two perpendicular lines or axes used for graphing ordered pairs of numbers?
The horizontal line is the x axis and the vertical line is the y axis with both axes being perpendicular to each other and meeting at the point of origin at (0, 0) on the Cartesian plane.
