Plotting Points on a graph

Front

What is the x-intercept?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis. It is represented as (x, 0). For example, if the x-intercept is 6, the point is (6, 0).

Front

On the coordinate plane, which line is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line (side to side) on the coordinate plane.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point E?

Back

The coordinates of the point E are (-3, 7).

Front

Which letter matches the coordinate (4, -6)?

Back

The letter that matches the coordinate (4, -6) is Z.

Front

What is the x-intercept shown on the graph if the point is (4, 0)?

Back

The x-intercept shown on the graph is (4, 0).

Front

What are coordinates?

Back

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

Front

What does the y-axis represent on a graph?

Back

The y-axis represents the vertical line on a graph where the x-coordinate is 0.

Front

What does the x-axis represent on a graph?

Back

The x-axis represents the horizontal line on a graph where the y-coordinate is 0.

Front

How do you plot the point (2, 3) on a graph?

Back

To plot the point (2, 3), move 2 units to the right on the x-axis and 3 units up on the y-axis.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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