Graphing on the Coordinate Plane

What is the significance of the origin in the coordinate plane?

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

• The origin is the point where the x-axis meets the positive y-axis, represented by (1,0).

• The origin is the point where the y-axis meets the negative x-axis, represented by (0,-1).

• The origin is the center of the coordinate plane, represented by (1,1).

What are the coordinates for a point located 3 units left and 2 units up from the origin?

• (-3, 2)

• (3, -2)

• (2, 3)

• (-2, -3)

What are the two directions you move when plotting points in a coordinate plane?

• left or right, up or down

• forward or backward, left or right

• up or down, diagonally

• north or south, east or west

What does the y-coordinate represent in a point (x, y)?

• The horizontal position.

• The vertical position.

• The distance from the origin.

• The angle of the point.

In which quadrant would the point (-3, 1) be located?

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant IV

What are the coordinates for point F if it is located at (-3, 1)?

• (-3, 1)

• (3, -1)

• (-1, 3)

• (1, -3)

What are the coordinates for POINT B if it is located at (4, -3)?

• (2, -1)

• (4, -3)

• (5, -2)

• (3, -4)

What are the coordinates for POINT C if it is located at (-2, 4)?

• (-2, 4)

• (2, -4)

• (4, -2)

• (-4, 2)

In which quadrant would the point (4, -2) be located?

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant IV

What is the second step in plotting a point (x, y) on the coordinate plane?

• Move left or right to the x-coordinate.

• Move up or down to the y-coordinate.

• Draw a line to connect the points.

• Label the point with its coordinates.
