This question is about plotting two points and drawing the straight line through them. Which two options are correct instructions for plotting two points which can then be used to draw the line y=2x+5. Select one or more.
A) Plot the points (1.3) and (2,-1)
b) Plot the points (1.3) and (1, 7)
c) Plot the point (-2, 0) trace 1 unit horizontally to the right of this and plot the second point. D) Plot the point (5, 0). Trace 1 unit horizontally to the right of this and 2 units down and plot the second point.
E) Plot the point (0.5) Trace 2 units horizontally to the right of this and 4 units down and plot the second point.
F) Plot the points (1, 2) and (2, 1)
To plot two points to draw a line, you need to follow these steps:
1) Identify the coordinates of the first point, which will be (x1, y1).
2) Locate this point on the Cartesian plane by moving along the x-axis to the right if x1 is positive or to the left if x1 is negative. Then move along the y-axis upwards if y1 is positive or downwards if y1 is negative.
3) Mark the point on the Cartesian plane.
Now you can move on to the second point:
4) Identify the coordinates of the second point, which will be (x2, y2).
5) Starting from the first point, move horizontally along the x-axis to the right if x2 is positive or to the left if x2 is negative. Then move along the y-axis upwards if y2 is positive or downwards if y2 is negative.
6) Mark the second point on the Cartesian plane.
Now that you have plotted the two points, you can draw a straight line passing through them.
Looking at the options provided, the correct instructions for plotting two points to draw the line y = 2x + 5 are:
A) Plot the points (1, 3) and (2, -1).
C) Plot the point (-2, 0) and trace 1 unit horizontally to the right of this and plot the second point.
Both of these options provide the correct coordinates for the two points that lie on the line y = 2x + 5.
