(12 cards)
A grid formed by a horizontal line called the x-axis and a vertical line called the y-axis.
Coordinate grid
Information collected about people or things, often to draw conclusions about them.
Data
A graph that uses line segments to show how data change over time.
Line graph
The difference between one number and the next on the scale of a graph.
Interval
A pair of numbers used to locate a point on a grid. The first number tells the left-right position and the second number tells the up-down position.
Ordered pair
A graph that shows frequency of data along a number line.
Line plot
A series of numbers placed at fixed distances on a graph to help label the graph.
Scale
The point where the two axes of a coordinate grid intersect; (0,0).
Origin
The first number in an ordered pair; tells the distance to move right or left from (0, 0).
X-coordinate
The horizontal number line on a coordinate plane.
X-axis
The second number in an ordered pair; tells the distance to move up or down from (0, 0).
Y-coordinate
The vertical number line on a coordinate plane.
Y-axis.
