Coordinate Plane Practice

Front

What are the coordinates of the point where the x-axis and the y-axis intersect on a coordinate plane?

Back

(0, 0)

Front

In the ordered pair (3, 0), what does the number 3 indicate?

Back

The point 3 is 3 units to the right of 0 on the x-axis.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point C if it is located at 3 units right and 4 units up?

Back

(3, 4)

Front

Which picture represents the correct location of point J at (2, 5)?

Back

A

Front

What steps should a student take to graph the point (5, 3) on a coordinate grid?

Back

Start at the origin. Move 5 units right. Move 3 units up. Graph the point.

Front

What is the x-coordinate in the ordered pair (x, y)?

Back

The x-coordinate represents the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the y-coordinate in the ordered pair (x, y)?

Back

The y-coordinate represents the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the origin (0, 0) represent on a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Front

If a point is located at (0, 4), how far is it from the x-axis?

Back

It is 4 units above the x-axis.

Front

If a point is located at (4, 0), how far is it from the y-axis?

Back

It is 4 units to the right of the y-axis.
