Graphing on Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis), used to locate points using ordered pairs.

Front

What are ordered pairs?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) that represent the position of a point on the coordinate plane, where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.
