Things to remember about a coordinate grid…
Notes Things to remember about a coordinate grid… Y This is the x-axis It is “left to right” This is the y-axis It is “top to bottom: Ordered pairs: (x, y) X

Plot the following points
(-6, -2) (-7, -5) (0, -2) (-5, -11) (4, 1) (9, 6) (4, -7) (1, -8) (-4, 5) (-2, 0) (2, 11) (5, 12) Connect the pairs with a line segment Record the coordinates in the charts to the right. Find the midpoint for each line and identify the pattern for calculating the midpoint.

Questions to ask myself…
December 1, 2018 Questions to ask myself… Is there a relationship between the x coordinates? Is there a relationship between the y coordinates? Is there a pattern that works for the x coordinates of line segment AB that also works for the x coordinates for line segment CD? What are possible patterns? What happens if I add two x’s or two y’s? Subtract them? Multiply them? Divide them? A combination of 2 or 3 operations?
