@boredfr

HaydenwH:

do you know what what the "origin" is?

Rylee88:

No

HaydenwH:

the origin is the center of the graph.

HaydenwH:

when using order airs to plot point, you always start at the origin (center) and go from there.

Rylee88:

Oh

HaydenwH:

do you know anything about plotting points?

Rylee88:

no lol

HaydenwH:

ok the first letter in you ordered pairs is the "x", when plotting these if positive you will go right, on the x-axis, how ever many this number says if it is negative you will go left

HaydenwH:

the second number is your "y", this number goes one the vertical line, if positive you go up., if negative u go down.

HaydenwH:

when plotting (1,-1) you will look at your "x", which is "1" this means you will go right, on the x-axis, 1 time the take your "y" "-1" and go down on from the "1" on the x-axis one time and put your dot.

HaydenwH:

do you understand?

Rylee88:

not really lol

HaydenwH:

HaydenwH:

ok, the top line, you would go over to 1, and then you would go down to negative one, and put your dot where the lines intersect. better?

HaydenwH:

did that help any?

Rylee88:

ehh Lol Im sorr Im really dumb w/ graphs

HaydenwH:

so you still dont understand?

Rylee88:
