A treasure is 7 blocks east and 5 blocks north of the start. Which ordered pair shows its location?
- (0, 5)
- (7, 5)
- (5, 7)
- (7, 0)
Point A is (5, 2) and Point B is (9, 2). How many units apart are they horizontally?
Point A is (2, 4) and Point C is (2, 9). How many units apart are they vertically?
Which real-world situation could be modeled by (1, 8)?
- 9 total pages in a book
- 1 rows across and 8 rows up on a garden grid
- 1 inches converted to feet
- 8 choices in a spelling rule
Why does (4, 6) differ from (6, 4) when x and y are not equal?
- ordered pairs ignore order
- the horizontal and vertical moves are switched
- only the second number matters
- both points must be at the origin
