Marcelle uses the coordinate graph shown to make words. He makes the word FIST. a. What are the coordinates of each of the letters in the word FIST? b. Change the first letter of the word FIST with another letter in the graph to make another word. What is your word? c. What are the coordinates of the new letter? d. How do the coordinates of the new letter compare to the coordinates of F?

Answer 1

To answer your questions, I'll assume a standard coordinate system for each letter in the word "FIST". Since I don't have access to the specific coordinate graph you mentioned, I will provide a general response based on the usual arrangement of letters on a coordinate graph.

a. Let's take the letters in "FIST" and assign hypothetical coordinates to them for illustration:

• F (1, 2)
• I (2, 3)
• S (3, 1)
• T (4, 2)

So the coordinates for the word "FIST" would be:

• F: (1, 2)
• I: (2, 3)
• S: (3, 1)
• T: (4, 2)

b. If we change the first letter, "F," to "C," the new word would be "CIST."

c. Let's assign coordinates to the letter "C." Let's say:

• C (1, 1)

So, the coordinates for the new letter "C" would be (1, 1).

d. Comparing the coordinates of the new letter "C" to the coordinates of "F":

• F has coordinates (1, 2)
• C has coordinates (1, 1)

The x-coordinates are the same (1), but the y-coordinate of "C" (1) is lower than that of "F" (2).

If you can provide the actual coordinates from your graph, I can give you more specific answers tailored to your scenario.
