Math Problem Statement
PLOT THE FOLLOWING POINTS ON NUMBER PLANE AND JOIN THEM TO FORM A STRAIGHT LINE X -2 -1 0 1 2 Y 2 1 0 -1 -2
Solution
To plot the points on the number plane and join them to form a straight line, we have the following pairs of coordinates:
- (-2, 2)
- (-1, 1)
- (0, 0)
- (1, -1)
- (2, -2)
We can plot these points on the coordinate plane:
- Point (-2, 2) is 2 units above the origin and 2 units to the left.
- Point (-1, 1) is 1 unit above the origin and 1 unit to the left.
- Point (0, 0) is at the origin.
- Point (1, -1) is 1 unit below the origin and 1 unit to the right.
- Point (2, -2) is 2 units below the origin and 2 units to the right.
When you connect all these points, they form a straight line.
I can also generate a graph to show this. Would you like me to do that for you?
