Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The horizontal axis on a graph where the values of the first coordinate in ordered pairs are plotted.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The vertical axis on a graph where the values of the second coordinate in ordered pairs are plotted.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the coordinates (0,0).

Front

How do you plot the ordered pair (5, 4)?

Back

Go 5 units to the right on the x-axis and then 4 units up on the y-axis.

Front

What are ordered pairs?

Back

A pair of numbers used to locate a point on a graph, written in the form (x, y).

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The x-coordinate, which indicates the position along the x-axis.

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The y-coordinate, which indicates the position along the y-axis.

Front

What is the coordinate of the point located 3 units right and 2 units up from the origin?

Back

(3, 2)

Front

If you move 4 units left and 3 units down from the origin, what are the coordinates?

Back

(-4, -3)

Front

What is the purpose of a coordinate plane?

Back

To visually represent and locate points using ordered pairs.
