Graphing Points

Front

What is the x-axis on the coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line that runs side to side.

Front

What are the four sections of the coordinate plane called?

Back

The four sections are called quadrants.

Front

In an ordered pair (x, y), what does the first number represent?

Back

The first number represents the x-axis.

Front

What is the ordered pair for the point located at (0, 3)?

Back

The ordered pair (0, 3) corresponds to point R.

Front

In quadrant IV, what are the signs of the x and y values?

Back

In quadrant IV, the x value is positive and the y value is negative.

Front

What is the y-axis on the coordinate plane?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line that runs up and down.

Front

How many quadrants are there in the coordinate plane?

Back

There are four quadrants in the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the significance of the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Front

What are the coordinates of a point located 3 units up and 2 units to the left of the origin?

Back

The coordinates would be (-2, 3).

Front

What is the relationship between the coordinates of a point and its location in the quadrants?

Back

The signs of the coordinates determine the quadrant: Quadrant I (positive, positive), Quadrant II (negative, positive), Quadrant III (negative, negative), Quadrant IV (positive, negative).
