Plotting Points and Coordinate System

The video tutorial covers plotting and moving ordered pairs on a Cartesian plane. It begins with a review of plotting ordered pairs, emphasizing the correct order of x and y coordinates. The tutorial then explains how to move coordinates using directional instructions, providing several examples. The session concludes with a practical activity for students to apply their learning by plotting and moving points on a plane.

What is the primary focus of the lesson introduced at the beginning?

• Understanding fractions

• Plotting ordered pairs

• Learning about angles

• Studying algebraic expressions

When plotting ordered pairs, which coordinate is placed first?

• Z-coordinate

• X-coordinate

• Y-coordinate

• W-coordinate

In which quadrant would you find the point (2, 3)?

• First quadrant

• Second quadrant

• Fourth quadrant

• Third quadrant

What happens to the y-coordinate when you move a point 7 units up?

• It remains the same

• It increases by 7

• It decreases by 7

• It decreases by 3

If a point is moved 8 units to the right, what happens to the x-coordinate?

• It decreases by 4

• It remains the same

• It decreases by 8

• It increases by 8

Which direction corresponds to moving a point to the south?

• Down

• Right

• Up

• Left

What should students do first in the activity involving plotting points?

• Find the answer

• Write the question on the Cartesian plane

• Erase the previous work

• Plot the points
