In your graphing questions, you can specify the display and behaviors for each coordinate
axis. You can set the minimum and maximum displayed values and the spacing between
gridlines and value labels. You can hide gridlines, labels, or coordinate axes. And
you can configure the snap spacing, which determines how objects drawn on the graphing
tool are positioned relative to the coordinate grid when they snap
to the nearest specified unit.
To configure the grid display and snap behavior for the graphing tool, you can add any of the following notation to the answer line, delimiting each item with a semicolon. For example, to set the minimum and maximum values displayed for the graph of a linear equation, your answer key could be:
Examples
line: y=x+1; axes: [0, 30, 0, 30]
Spacing values must be positive decimal numbers; minimum and maximum values for axes must be decimal numbers, and the maximum must be greater than the minimum.
