Graphing on Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal axis (X-axis) and a vertical axis (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.

How do you plot a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin (0, 0), move along the X-axis to the x-coordinate, and then move vertically to the y-coordinate.
