choose the coordinate pair to plot on the coordinate plane so the ratio stays equivalent
To ensure that the ratio stays equivalent, we need to find two coordinate pairs that form a line passing through the origin (0,0). This is because any line passing through the origin will have a constant ratio between the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate.
One such coordinate pair is (2,4). The ratio between the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate is 2/4 = 1/2.
Another coordinate pair is (-6,-12). The ratio between the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate is -6/-12 = 1/2.
Both of these coordinate pairs have an equivalent ratio of 1/2, so if we plot them on the coordinate plane, the ratio will stay consistent.
