Coordinate Grid Practice I No pattern

Front

What is a coordinate grid?

Back

A coordinate grid is a two-dimensional plane 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 is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate grid, written in the form (x, y), where x is the x-coordinate and y is the y-coordinate.

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate represents the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate grid.

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate represents the vertical position of a point on the coordinate grid.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate grid?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the ordered pair (0, 0).

Front

How do you graph the point (3, 4) on a coordinate grid?

Back

Start at the origin (0, 0). Move 3 units to the right (x-axis) and then 4 units up (y-axis) to graph the point.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a coordinate grid where the x-coordinate is 0.

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a coordinate grid where the y-coordinate is 0.

Front

In the ordered pair (2, 5), which number is the x-coordinate?

Back

2 is the x-coordinate.

Front

In the ordered pair (2, 5), which number is the y-coordinate?

Back

5 is the y-coordinate.
