Which of the following is not true? The origin is at the point zero comma zero. The y-coordinate determines the vertical distance from the origin. A coordinate plane is divided into four quadrants. An origin pair shows the horizontal and vertical distance of a point from the origin.
@Jack1 Do you know the answer? I'll give you a medal
ooo... shiny ;D
so list em off dude a: origin is - the meeting point of the x and y axis - at the point (0,0) so a it true
Its says which is NOT true so are you sure A isnt true?
|dw:1380541471160:dw|
|dw:1380541555448:dw| b: The y-coordinate determines the vertical distance from the origin. the above squared section is the vertical distance, as is the negative y continued below, so b is true
Oh
|dw:1380541754926:dw|
And I know that there are 4 quadrants in a coordinate plane so C has to be true
c: A coordinate plane is divided into four quadrants. |dw:1380541747356:dw| a co-ordinate CAN be divided into 4 quadrants... but that's just for our use, it doesn't have to be same as how (a) the origin is a the point (0,0) ...well YES, in a 2 dimensional plane, it is but it's at the point (0) on a number line (one dimensional plane) and the point (0,0,0) in a 3 dimensional plane
i think the MOST correct answer they're looking for though is d) An origin pair shows the horizontal and vertical distance of a point from the origin. this is false
a CO-ORDINATE pair shows the distance, not an origin pair
Thanks :}
another name for it is (ordered pair) but never origin pair (unless it is the point 0,0)
all good dude
I'll give you anothr medal if you answer another question, let me close this and ask another one
sure dude Im a wh 0re for medals... ;D
