Four Quadrant Graphing

Front

What are the four quadrants in a graph?

Back

The four quadrants are: Quadrant I (positive x, positive y), Quadrant II (negative x, positive y), Quadrant III (negative x, negative y), Quadrant IV (positive x, negative y).

Front

What is the X-axis?

Back

The X-axis is the horizontal line on a graph where the y-coordinate is zero.

Front

What is the Y-axis?

Back

The Y-axis is the vertical line on a graph where the x-coordinate is zero.

Front

How do you identify the coordinates of a point on a graph?

Back

Coordinates are identified as (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What does the ordered pair (0, 0) represent?

Back

The ordered pair (0, 0) represents the origin point on a graph.

Front

How do you move to the right on a graph?

Back

To move to the right, increase the x-coordinate.

Front

How do you move to the left on a graph?

Back

To move to the left, decrease the x-coordinate.

Front

How do you move up on a graph?

Back

To move up, increase the y-coordinate.

Front

How do you move down on a graph?

Back

To move down, decrease the y-coordinate.

Front

What is the correct format for writing an ordered pair?

Back

The correct format is (x, y).
