How is an ordered pair written?
An ordered pair is written (x, y).

Lindsey made a diamond and she wants to flip it over the y-axis. If the shape is in quadrantIII, what quadrant will it be in when flipped over the y-axis?
The shape will be in quadrantIV.
300
What direction does the x-axis run?
The x-axis runs left to right.
300
On the x-axis, what value do the numbers to the left of the origin have?
The numbers to the left of the origin on the x-axis are negative.
300

Leslie made a triangle. The ordered pairs are L (4,5) D (5,6) A (6,5). She wants to reflect the shape across the x-axis. What will be the new coordinates of points L', D', and A'?
L' (4,-5)
D' (5,-6)
A' (6,-5)

What words would you attach to this translation rule (x,y) --> (x+2, y-1)?
This translation rule means that x moves right 2 and y moves down 1.
400
What 2 types of numbers do a coordinate plane have?
A coordinate plane has positive and negative numbers.
