In order to plot a point in the coordinate system‚ you will need the X coordinate as well as the Y coordinate. For example‚ the point (3‚5) can be plotted be going right on the X axis 3 points‚ and going up on the Y axis 5 points. Remember the opposite goes for negatives. 2) How many Points are needed to graph

Here in this paper I intend to try and figure out the aspect of the truth behind some of the foods I love to eat. Louisiana Purchase’s Red Beans and Rice: Calories: 190‚ Protein: 7grams‚ and fat: 2 grams. In order to find out how much protein my math and equation would be based on this: There are 4 grams of calories per each gram of protein so I am going to multiply like this 4*7= 28‚ which means for every gram of protein I am consuming 28 calories. This is amazing because I never knew this.
