A coordinate plane ranges from negative 9 to 9 in unit increments on the x-axis and from 11 to negative 11 in unit increments on the y-axis. A line with arrows at both the ends joins three plotted points and extends beyond. The coordinates of the plotted points are: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 1 comma negative 1 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 2 comma negative 2 right parenthesis.

which letter is it

The correct answer is:

A coordinate plane ranges from negative 9 to 9 in unit increments on the x-axis and from 11 to negative 11 in unit increments on the y-axis. A line with arrows at both the ends joins three plotted points and extends beyond. The coordinates of the plotted points are: (0, 0), (1, -1), and (2, -2).

The correct answer is:

A coordinate plane ranges from negative 9 to 9 in unit increments on the x-axis and from 11 to negative 11 in unit increments on the y-axis. A line with arrows at both the ends joins three plotted points and extends beyond. The coordinates of the plotted points are: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 1 comma negative 1 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 2 comma negative 2 right parenthesis.

You would plot the points (0, 0), (1, -1), and (2, -2) on the coordinate plane, and then draw a line connecting them. The line will extend beyond the plotted points.

To graph the proportional relationship y = -2x by plotting points, we need to find the y-values for different values of x.

To find the y-values, we can substitute different values of x into the equation and solve for y. Since it is a proportional relationship, the ratio of y to x will always be the same, which is -2 in this case.

Let's choose a few values for x and find the corresponding y-values:
- When x = 0, y = -2(0) = 0. So the first point is (0, 0).
- When x = 1, y = -2(1) = -2. So the second point is (1, -2).
- When x = 2, y = -2(2) = -4. So the third point is (2, -4).

Now, let's plot these points on a coordinate plane:
- Place the first point (0, 0) at the origin (where the x-axis and y-axis intersect).
- The second point (1, -2) will be one unit to the right of the origin and two units below it.
- The third point (2, -4) will be two units to the right of the origin and four units below it.

Once you have plotted these points, draw a line that passes through all the plotted points. This line represents the graph of the proportional relationship y = -2x.
