Coordinate Graph

Front

What is a coordinate graph?

Back

A coordinate graph is a two-dimensional space where points are defined by pairs of numbers (x, y) representing their position on the horizontal (x-axis) and vertical (y-axis) lines.

Front

What are the four quadrants of a coordinate graph?

Back

Quadrant I (positive x, positive y), Quadrant II (negative x, positive y), Quadrant III (negative x, negative y), Quadrant IV (positive x, negative y).

Front

How do you identify the quadrant of a point?

Back

To identify the quadrant, look at the signs of the x and y coordinates: Quadrant I (both positive), Quadrant II (x negative, y positive), Quadrant III (both negative), Quadrant IV (x positive, y negative).

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate graph, written in the form (x, y).

Front

How do you write an ordered pair for the point located at x = 5 and y = -3?

Back

The ordered pair is (5, -3).

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate represents the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate graph.

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate represents the vertical position of a point on the coordinate graph.

Front

If a point has coordinates (-4, 3), in which quadrant is it located?

Back

Quadrant II.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point A located at x = -2 and y = 7?

Back

The ordered pair is (-2, 7).

Front

If both coordinates of a point are positive, in which quadrant is the point located?

Back

Quadrant I.
