Graphing Coordinates

Front

What are coordinates?

Back

Coordinates are a set of values that show an exact position on a graph, typically represented as (x, y).

Front

What does the first number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The first number in a coordinate pair represents the x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position on the graph.

Front

What does the second number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The second number in a coordinate pair represents the y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position on the graph.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate system?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented as (0, 0).

Front

How do you identify a point in the fourth quadrant?

Back

In the fourth quadrant, the x-coordinate is positive and the y-coordinate is negative.

Front

How do you identify a point in the second quadrant?

Back

In the second quadrant, the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point located at (0, 3)?

Back

The coordinates (0, 3) indicate a point on the y-axis, 3 units above the origin.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point located at (-4, 0)?

Back

The coordinates (-4, 0) indicate a point on the x-axis, 4 units to the left of the origin.

Front

If a point is located at (2, -3), what is its x-coordinate?

Back

The x-coordinate is 2.

Front

If a point is located at (-1, 5), what is its y-coordinate?

Back

The y-coordinate is 5.
