Example Questions

Example Question #280 : The Number System

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

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

From our question we know that Molly 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 7
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. Molly ran {mathcode} units to Trisha's house.
