Example Questions

Example Question #351 : Grade 6

Emery decided to run from her house to her friend Trisha's house. If we were to draw Emery's house and Trisha's house on a coordinate plane, Emery lives at point  and Trisha lives at point . Create a coordinate plane to help determine the distance, in units, that Emery runs.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

From our question we know that Emery lives at point  and Trisha lives at point . We want to draw a coordinate plane and plot both of these points. Your coordinate plane should look something like the following:

Plot 11
Now that we have these points graphed, we can count the units between them. Now that we have these points graphed, we can count the units between them. Emery ran {mathcode} units to Trisha's house.
