Graphing Points and Coordinate System

This video tutorial covers the basics of graphing on the coordinate plane, including understanding the axes, origin, and quadrants. It explains how to identify and plot points using ordered pairs, and how to read scales on axes. The tutorial also explores practical applications of these concepts in real-world scenarios and introduces advanced graphing techniques. The lesson concludes with a summary of key points.

What is the point called where the x-axis and y-axis intersect?

• Quadrant

• Origin

• Coordinate

• Axis

In which quadrant would you find a point with coordinates (-3, 5)?

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant IV

• Quadrant II

If a point is located at (2, -3), which quadrant is it in?

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant IV

How do you determine the x-coordinate of a point?

• By measuring the distance from the y-axis

• By measuring the distance from the x-axis

• By measuring how far up or down the point is from the origin

• By measuring how far left or right the point is from the origin

What is the ordered pair for a point located 4 units to the right and 3 units up from the origin?

• (-4, 3)

• (4, -3)

• (4, 3)

• (3, 4)

When graphing a point at (-5, 2), which direction do you move first?

• Down 2 units

• Up 2 units

• Left 5 units

• Right 5 units

If each grid line on a graph represents 5 miles, how many miles does 6 grid lines represent?

• 15 miles

• 35 miles

• 30 miles

• 25 miles

What is the scale of a graph if each grid line represents 0.5 units?

• 1 unit

• 2 units

• 5 units

• 0.5 units

If a point is located at (0, 5), on which axis does it lie?

• Neither

• Both

• x-axis

• y-axis

In a real-world scenario, if time is plotted on the x-axis and temperature on the y-axis, which quadrants could the points appear in?

• Quadrants I and II

• Quadrants III and IV

• Quadrants I and IV

• Quadrants II and III
