The first abscissa will decrease by the amount of leftward translation; the ordinate will not change.

You can find the run by subtracting the -coordinate of the left point from that of the right point?

The run of a line segment is the horizontal distance between the x-coordinates of two points. To find the run, you subtract the x-coordinate of the left point from the x-coordinate of the right point. This calculation gives you the length of the base of the triangle formed by the line segment on the coordinate plane.


What does translation of a congruent figure mean?

You recreate a figure that is equal in side lengths, angles, and area in a new place on the x-y plane. For example if point a is on coordinate(2,2) and you are to translate it 1unit to the right and 2units down, the coordinates of point A' would be (3, 0). Up and down change the y coordinate and left and right change the y coordinate. Once you've translated all the points, connect the dots.


Is a horizontal line left to right?

Yes, it is. Think of the horizon. A horizontal line is parallel to the horizon.


How can you graph and locate points that contain negative numbers in a coordinate plane?

To,plota point, start at the origin and count along the x axis until you reach the x coordinate, count right for positive numbers, left for negative.


What is the definition of coordinate pair?

a coordinate pair is a pair of fractions that show u how to draw with purple dinousors by ur side (fyi this is wrong lol ). * * * * * Why bother with that answer? A coordinate pair is a way of describing the position of a point in 2-dimensional space, devised by Rene Descartes. You select any point on the plane and call it the origin and its coordinate reference is (0,0). The position of any other point in the plane can be identified by how far to the right (the first of the coordinate pair), and how far up (the second) it is. In basic terms, that is it. For points to the left of the origin, the first coordinate is negative. For points to that are lower down, the second coordinate is negative.


How do you mark any 4 points on a coordinate grid so that each point is the same distance from the y-axis?

move to the left or right of the y- axis the given distance. place points there. move up any distance. then move to the left or right of the y- axis the given distance. place points there. now you have 4 points


What is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate plane?

Why are two numbers necessary to locate points on a coordinate plane?


Find PD if the coordinate of P is -7 and the coordinate of D is -1?

If p=(-7) and d=(-1) then the distance from p to d is determined by the distance formula for the one dimensional coordinate line:D=(x2-x1) d=x2, p=x1D=(-1)-(-7) = (-1)+7 = 6The positive number means the direction from p to d is from left to right on the coordinate line.


When plotting or finding a coordinate you would go left then down to reach the coordinate?

False


Which types of numbers make you move left or down the coordinate plane?

A negative x coordinate would make you move left, and a negative y coordinate would make you move down.


Which coordinate or coordinates change when you translate a unit x units to the left?

The x-coordinate changes.


You can find the rise by the y-coordinate of the left point from the y-coordinate of the right point?
