4 quadrant graphing

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

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

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The first number represents the x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position on the graph.

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The second number represents the y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position on the graph.

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

The 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 is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a coordinate plane where the y-coordinate is zero.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a coordinate plane where the x-coordinate is zero.

Front

What quadrant is located in the top right of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant I, where both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What quadrant is located in the top left of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant II, where x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What quadrant is located in the bottom left of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant III, where both x and y coordinates are negative.

Front

What quadrant is located in the bottom right of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant IV, where x coordinates are positive and y coordinates are negative.
