Plotting Points on a Coordinate Plane: Quadrant 1

Plot the following points:

(-6,0), (0,17), (3,-16), and (11,5)

What does Quadrant 1 on the coordinate plane include?

• Only positive numbers

• Only negative numbers

• Both positive and negative numbers

• No numbers, only letters

What is the horizontal axis called?

• X-axis

• Z-axis

• Y-axis

• W-axis

What is the vertical axis known as?

• Y-axis

• Z-axis

• A-axis

• X-axis

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

• W-coordinate

• X-coordinate

• Z-coordinate

• Y-coordinate

How do you plot the point (3,4)?

• Left 3, up 4

• Right 3, down 4

• Right 3, up 4

• Left 3, down 4

What direction do you move first when plotting a point?

• Up then right

• Left then down

• Down then left

• Right then up

Where do you plot the point (0,9)?

• On the X-axis

• On the Z-axis

• At the origin

• On the Y-axis

What is the difference between the points (9,0) and (0,9)?

• (9,0) is on the Y-axis, (0,9) is on the X-axis

• There is no difference

• (9,0) is on the X-axis, (0,9) is on the Y-axis

• Both are at the origin

What is the significance of the point (0,0)?

• It's called the endpoint

• It's called the origin

• It's the highest point

• It's the lowest point
