Question
Answer
Absolute value   The distance between a number and zero on the number line. The symbol for absolute value is shown in the equation |-8|=8.  
🗑
Coordinates   An ordered pair, (x,y), that locates a point in a plane.  
🗑
Inequality   Any mathematical sentence that contains the symbols > (greater than), < (less than), < (less than or equal to), or > (greater than or equal to).  
🗑
Integers   The set of whole numbers and their opposites {…-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,…}  
🗑
Negative numbers   The set of numbers less than zero  
🗑
Opposite number   Two different numbers that have the same absolute value. Example  
🗑
Ordered Pair   A pair of numbers, (x,y), that indicate the position of a point on the Cartesian Plane.  
🗑
Origin   The point of intersection of the vertical and horizontal axes of a Cartesian plane. The coordinates of the origin are (0, 0).  
🗑
Positive number   The set of numbers greater than zero.  
🗑
Rational number   The set of numbers that can be written in the form a/b where a and b are integers and b≠0.  
🗑
Sign   a symbol that indicates whether a number is positive or negative. Example  
🗑
x-axis   The horizontal number line on the Cartesian coordinate plane.  
🗑
x-coordinate   The first number of in ordered pair; the position of a point relative to the vertical axis  
🗑
y-axis   The vertical number line on the Cartesian coordinate plane  
🗑
y-coordinate   The second number in an ordered pair; the position of a point relative to the horizontal axis  
🗑
