Graphing Points

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in a Cartesian plane?

Back

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

Front

True or False: The coordinates of a point are (y, x).

Back

False

Front

Identify the point that does not belong: (-3, 5), (6, -2), (-1, 7), (-8, 9).

Back

(6, -2) is the point that does not belong because it has a negative y-coordinate while the others have positive y-coordinates.

Front

What letter is located at the coordinates (7, -6)?

Back

D

Front

Which letter corresponds to the coordinate (4, -6)?

Back

Z

Front

True or False: The origin is where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Back

True

Front

What is the x-coordinate of the point (3, 4)?

Back

3

Front

What is the y-coordinate of the point (-2, 5)?

Back

5

Front

If a point is located at (0, 0), what is this point called?

Back

The origin.

Front

What does a negative x-coordinate indicate about a point's location?

Back

It indicates that the point is located to the left of the origin.
