Plotting Points

Front

What is a coordinate point?

Back

A coordinate point is a pair of numbers (x, y) that defines a specific location on a graph, where 'x' represents the horizontal position and 'y' represents the vertical position.

Front

What does the ordered pair (x, y) represent?

Back

The ordered pair (x, y) represents a point on a Cartesian coordinate system, where 'x' is the horizontal distance from the origin and 'y' is the vertical distance from the origin.

Front

How do you plot the point (-1, 1) on a graph?

Back

To plot the point (-1, 1), move 1 unit left from the origin (0, 0) along the x-axis and then 1 unit up along the y-axis.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point C if it is located at (2, 4)?

Back

The ordered pair for point C is (2, 4).

Front

What is the ordered pair for point L if it is located at (-4, -4)?

Back

The ordered pair for point L is (-4, -4).

Front

How do you write the coordinates for the point on the graph?

Back

Coordinates are written in the form (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal value and 'y' is the vertical value.

Front

What is the ordered pair for the hat if it is located at (-3, -1)?

Back

The ordered pair for the hat is (-3, -1).

Front

What does the x-coordinate indicate in a coordinate pair?

Back

The x-coordinate indicates the horizontal position of a point on the graph.

Front

What does the y-coordinate indicate in a coordinate pair?

Back

The y-coordinate indicates the vertical position of a point on the graph.

Front

What is the significance of the origin in a coordinate system?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) on a graph where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, serving as the reference point for all other points.
