Plot Points on a Coordinate Plane- Classwork

Front

What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis).

Front

What does an ordered pair represent?

Back

An ordered pair represents a specific point on the coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y), where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.

Front

What is the x-coordinate in the ordered pair (3, 5)?

Back

The x-coordinate is 3.

Front

What is the y-coordinate in the ordered pair (3, 5)?

Back

The y-coordinate is 5.

Front

How do you plot the point (2, 3) on a coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin (0, 0), move 2 units to the right (positive x-direction), and then move 3 units up (positive y-direction).

Front

What does it mean if the x-coordinate is negative?

Back

A negative x-coordinate means the point is located to the left of the y-axis.

Front

What does it mean if the y-coordinate is negative?

Back

A negative y-coordinate means the point is located below the x-axis.

Front

What is the ordered pair for the point located at (0, 0)?

Back

The ordered pair is (0, 0), also known as the origin.

Front

If you move 4 units to the right and 2 units down from the origin, what is the ordered pair?

Back

The ordered pair is (4, -2).

Front

What is the ordered pair for point G if it is located at (3, 0)?

Back

The ordered pair for point G is (3, 0).
