It is important for beginners because the coordinates of the graphing points are measured from the origin. More expert users don't need to do so.

Three or more points on a line?

well, a line consists of an infinite number of points the three important points on a line are start (the origin of the line) end (the end of the line) midpoint (halfway across the line)


How is graphing an inequality different than graphing an equation?

Not greatly. To graph an inequality, you start off graphing the corresponding equality. It is only then that you select one side or the other (with or without the graph itself), as the region of interest.


What if your friend is graphing the point (25) . Her first step is to start at the origin and go up 2 units. Is her method correct?

If you mean the point of (2, 5) then the 1st step is to move 2 units to the right of the origin then move 5 units up to locate the given point.


How do you plot the points 0 3 and 0 11?

To plot points remember the format (x,y). The points you provided will not cross the x-axis because they have a zero for x. (0,3) start from the middle(origin) and count three spaces up(counting by 1).Place a dot. (0,11) start from the middle(origin) and count eleven spaces up(counting by 1).Place a dot.

How do you make a turtle in graphing ordered pairs?

To graph a turtle using ordered pairs, you would plot points on a coordinate plane. Each ordered pair represents the x and y coordinates of a point. Start by plotting the head of the turtle at the given coordinates, then continue plotting the remaining points to create the turtle's body and limbs. Connect the points with lines to complete the turtle's shape.


Does the graph of and odd function have to contain the origin?

No function ever really has to contain the origin if you constrain the domain to not include zero. Another way would be to just start graphing at x=1 and continue increasing x. In fact, you don't even have to graph at all since an odd function is defined as f(x) + f(-x) = 0


When you graph a line using only the slope and a point what step do you start with?

When you graph a line using only the slope and a point, you start by graphing the point.


What does origin mean?
