Understanding Coordinate Plane Concepts

This video tutorial covers graphing points in the coordinate plane, explaining the four quadrants, the x-axis and y-axis, and how to locate and plot points. It discusses points on the axes, ordered pairs, and the importance of reading scales on axes. The lesson concludes with a summary and a preview of the next topic.

How many quadrants are there in a coordinate plane?

• Three

• Four

• Five

• Two

What is the term used for graphing a point on the coordinate plane?

• Drawing

• Plotting

• Sketching

• Marking

Which of the following is true about points located on the axes?

• They are in a quadrant

• Both coordinates are non-zero

• They are always at the origin

• One of the coordinates is zero

What is the ordered pair for a point located at 3 units right and 5 units up from the origin?

• (3, 5)

• (5, 3)

• (3, -5)

• (-3, 5)

If a point is at (0, 0), where is it located?

• At the origin

• On the y-axis

• On the x-axis

• In the first quadrant

What is the x-coordinate of point A if it is located at (-4, 3)?

• 4

• 0

• 3

• -4

How do you find the position of a point at two and a half on the x-axis?

• Between 4 and 5

• Between 3 and 4

• Between 2 and 3

• Between 1 and 2

What is the scale increment if each unit on the axis represents 10?

• 50

• 20

• 10

• 5

If a scale is labeled in increments of 20, but each unit equals 10, what is the value of the first mark after the origin?

• 20

• 15

• 10

• 5

What should you pay attention to when graphing points on a coordinate plane?

• The thickness of the lines

• The size of the graph paper

• The color of the axes

• The labels and increments on the axes
