Example Questions

Example Question #310 : The Number System

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

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

From our question we know that Lisa lives at point  and Kathy 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 1
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. Lisa ran {mathcode} units to Kathy's house.
