Plotting Rational Numbers on the Coordinate Plane

Plotting Rational Numbers on the Coordinate Plane

Introduction

Rational numbers can be written as a fraction of two integers, and they can be located precisely on the coordinate plane. Plotting rational numbers on the coordinate plane helps show relationsh...

Kai wants to plot three pairs of rational numbers on a coordinate plane: points A, B, and C.

First, draw a coordinate plane and mark the origin at (0, 0).

If the x-coordinate is positive, move to the right. If the x-coordinate is negative, move to the left.

If the y-coordinate is positive, move up. If the y-coordinate is negati...
