Tutorial - Learn how to plot basic coordinate points on a xy plane

The video tutorial covers plotting points on a coordinate plane. It begins with a review of linear inequalities and the X number line, then introduces the coordinate plane with X and Y axes. The teacher explains how to plot points using the XY format and provides examples for practice. The session concludes with a brief discussion on the importance of understanding these concepts.

What is the significance of the X number line in plotting points?

• It is the horizontal axis where positive values are to the right and negative values to the left.

• It is used to plot only negative values.

• It is used to plot only positive values.

• It represents the vertical axis.

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

• The intersection of the X and Y axes, represented as (0,0).

• The point where the X axis is positive.

• The highest point on the Y axis.

• The lowest point on the X axis.

How are the X and Y axes oriented in a coordinate plane?

• X is vertical and Y is horizontal.

• Both are horizontal.

• Both are vertical.

• X is horizontal and Y is vertical.

If a point is given as (-5, 6), how would you plot it?

• Move 5 units up and 6 units right.

• Move 5 units left and 6 units up.

• Move 5 units right and 6 units down.

• Move 5 units down and 6 units left.

What does a coordinate point (0, 4) indicate about its position?

• It is 4 units down on the Y axis.

• It is 4 units up on the Y axis.

• It is 4 units to the left on the X axis.

• It is 4 units to the right on the X axis.
