According to economists, this episode of great recession was resulted from a sudden busting of house bubble in US, where the house bubble was caused by rapid growth of improper regulation on sub-prime mortgages (Merriam 2009; Wang 2009; Whitney 2007).
When working with equations that have two variables, the coordinate plane is an important tool. It's a way to draw pictures of equations that makes them easier to understand. To create a coordinate plane, start with a sheet of graph or grid paper. Next, draw a horizontal line.
To find out the coordinates of a point in the coordinate system you do the opposite. Begin at the point and follow a vertical line either up or down to the x-axis. There is your x-coordinate. And then do the same but following a horizontal line to find the y-coordinate. A relation is a set of ordered pairs. The first coordinate (usually the x-coordinate) is called the domain and the second (usually the y-coordinate) is called the range. If you remember from earlier chapters the domain contains values that correspond to the independent variable whereas the range contains values corresponding to the dependent variable.
