Example Question #1 : Solve Problems By Graphing Points In Quadrants Of A Coordinate Plane: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Ns.C.8

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

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

From our question we know that Jessica lives at point  and Alyssa 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
