OL Spiral Review Homework #7

What is the vocabulary word for the horizontal line at the bottom of the coordinate plane?

• X-axis

• Y-axis

• Origin

• Ordered pair

Answer explanation

The horizontal line at the bottom of the coordinate plane is called the X-axis. It represents the set of all points where the Y-coordinate is zero, distinguishing it from the vertical Y-axis.

What is the vocabulary word for the vertical line on the left of the coordinate plane?

• X-axis

• Y-axis

• Origin

• Coordinate Plane

Answer explanation

The vertical line on the left of the coordinate plane is called the Y-axis. It represents the vertical values in a graph, while the X-axis represents the horizontal values.

How do you write an ordered pair?

• (X,X)

• (Y,X)

• (X,Y)

• (Y,Y)

Answer explanation

An ordered pair is written in the format (X,Y), where X is the first element and Y is the second element. This distinguishes it from other combinations like (X,X) or (Y,Y), making (X,Y) the correct choice.

What is the vocabulary word for the beginning of the coordinate plane, located at the point (0,0)?

• x-axis

• y-axis

• Origin

• Ordered Pair

Answer explanation

The correct term for the beginning of the coordinate plane at the point (0,0) is the 'Origin'. The x-axis and y-axis refer to the horizontal and vertical lines, respectively, while an ordered pair represents coordinates.

The coordinates for the origin in the coordinate plane are________?

• (1,1)

• (0,0)

• (0,1)

• (1,0)

Answer explanation

The origin in the coordinate plane is defined as the point where both the x and y coordinates are zero. Therefore, the correct coordinates for the origin are (0,0).

The axes divide the coordinate plane into four sections called what? 

• ordered pairs

• origins

• quadrants

• coordinate plane

Answer explanation

The axes of the coordinate plane divide it into four sections known as quadrants. Each quadrant represents a different combination of positive and negative values for the x and y coordinates.

If you were to plot the point (4, -12) what would be the correct method?

• Up 4, left 12

• Right 4, up 12

• Down 4, left 12

• Right 4, down 12

Answer explanation

To plot the point (4, -12), start at the origin (0,0). Move right 4 units (positive x-direction) and then down 12 units (negative y-direction) to reach the point. Thus, the correct method is 'Right 4, down 12'.

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

• G

• Z

• K

• None of the above

Answer explanation

The coordinate (4, -6) corresponds to the letter Z in a standard grid where letters are assigned based on their position. Thus, the correct answer is Z.

Where is point E located?

• ( 2, 0 )

• ( 2 , 2 )

• ( 0 , 2 )

• ( 0 , 0 )

Answer explanation

Point E is located at (0, 2), which corresponds to the coordinates where the x-value is 0 and the y-value is 2. This matches the correct answer choice among the options provided.
