Plotting Points on a Coordinate Plane

The video tutorial explains how to plot a point on a coordinate plane. It begins by introducing the concept of x and y values in coordinates. The tutorial then demonstrates how to convert the fraction 7/3 into a mixed number. Following this, it provides step-by-step instructions on plotting the x coordinate, moving right by 4.1 units. Finally, it explains how to plot the y coordinate by moving down 2 and 1/3 units, resulting in the point being located at Point C.

What are the two components needed to plot a point on a coordinate plane?

• X-value and Y-value

• Horizontal and Diagonal values

• X-value and Z-value

• Y-value and Z-value

How is the y-value -7/3 expressed as a mixed number?

• -2 and 2/3

• -2 and 1/3

• -1 and 1/3

• -3 and 1/3

When plotting the x-value of 4.1, in which direction do you move?

• Down

• Up

• Right

• Left

After moving right for the x-value, how far do you move for the y-value of -2 and 1/3?

• Up 2 and 1/3

• Down 2 and 1/3

• Left 2 and 1/3

• Right 2 and 1/3

Which point on the coordinate plane corresponds to the coordinates (4.1, -7/3)?

• Point D

• Point C

• Point B

• Point A
