Plotting Points in the Coordinate Plane

On the coordinate plane, which line is the x-axis?

• Horizontal Line (Side to Side)

• Vertical Line (Up and Down)

Ordered pair (0,0) is also known as the ___.

• y-axis

• x-axis

• origin

What letter is at (1,-7 )

• There is no letter at those coordinates.

• B

• C

• K

What letter is at (-8,-3)

• There is no letter at those coordinates.

• S

• X

• R

Where is Point B located?

• (6, 6)

• (3, 3)

• (3, 6)

• (6, 3)

Which Point has the coordinates (4, 4)?

• Point L

• Point T

• Point X

• Point N

Which of these is a correct process for plotting the point (5, 2) on the coordinate plane?

• Start at the origin. Move 5 units up the y-axis, and then move 2 units to the right. Plot the point there.

• Start at the top of the y-axis. Move 5 units down the y-axis, and then move 2 units to the right. Plot the point there.

• Start at the origin. Move 5 units to the right on the x-axis, and then move 2 units up. Plot the point there.

• Start at the top of the y-axis. Move 5 units to the right, and then move 2 units down. Plot the point there.
