Learning target I can plot and identify points on the coordinate plane using ordered pairs, explain what each part stands for, and build one for a situation I have not seen before.

Remember7.5 Small Group · Group 2

The sign of each coordinate gives the direction and the number gives the distance, and x always comes before y. Coordinates can be negative or decimals. The order of the numbers still decides where the point goes.
