Points on a Coordinte Grid

Front

In the ordered pair, (x, y), what does 'x' represent?

Back

The 'x' value represents the horizontal position on the coordinate grid.

Front

In the ordered pair, (x, y), what does 'y' represent?

Back

The 'y' value represents the vertical position on the coordinate grid.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate grid?

Back

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

Front

How do you plot the point (3, 2) on a coordinate grid?

Back

Move 3 units to the right on the x-axis and 2 units up on the y-axis.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point A located at 5 units right and 3 units up?

Back

(5, 3)

Front

What is the ordered pair for point B located at 2 units left and 4 units down?

Back

(-2, -4)

Front

If a point is located at (0, 4), where is it on the coordinate grid?

Back

It is on the y-axis, 4 units above the origin.

Front

What does it mean if a point has a negative x-coordinate?

Back

It means the point is located to the left of the origin.

Front

What does it mean if a point has a negative y-coordinate?

Back

It means the point is located below the origin.

Front

How do you identify the quadrant of a point (x, y)?

Back

Quadrant I: x>0, y>0; Quadrant II: x<0, y>0; Quadrant III: x<0, y<0; Quadrant IV: x>0, y<0.
