Exploring Coordinate Grids

The video tutorial introduces coordinate grids, explaining the x-axis and y-axis, and how to graph points using coordinate pairs. It highlights common mistakes, such as reversing the order of coordinates, and discusses special cases like zeros and the origin. The tutorial concludes with an offer for further assistance.

What is the horizontal axis on a coordinate grid called?

• w-axis

• x-axis

• y-axis

• z-axis

What is a common error when students plot points on the coordinate grid?

• Ignoring the axes

• Forgetting to place the point

• Only using positive numbers

• Placing the y-coordinate before the x-coordinate

What should you do if you accidentally plot a point incorrectly?

• Erase and correct the placement

• Ask for a new grid

• Leave it as is

• Plot another point nearby

What is the correct order of coordinates in a pair?

• Both are interchangeable

• Depends on the grid orientation

• x-coordinate, y-coordinate

• y-coordinate, x-coordinate

What is the coordinate of the origin?

• (0,1)

• (0,0)

• (1,1)

• (1,0)

What happens if a point lies directly on the x-axis?

• The x-coordinate is 0

• The y-coordinate is 0

• It is an invalid point

• Both coordinates are 0

If a point is at (0, 7), what does this indicate about its position?

• It is 7 units right of the origin

• It is 7 units below the origin

• It is 7 units above the origin

• It is 7 units left of the origin
