Graphing Ordered Pairs on the Coordinate Plane

The video tutorial introduces the concept of a coordinate plane, explaining its axes and the origin. It covers how to graph ordered pairs, detailing the process of moving along the x and y axes. The tutorial also explains the four quadrants of the coordinate plane, describing the sign of coordinates in each quadrant. Finally, it discusses points that lie on the axes and how they are not part of any quadrant.

What is the point called where the x-axis and y-axis intersect?

• Axis point

• Coordinate

• Origin

• Intersection

In an ordered pair, which coordinate is written first?

• W-coordinate

• Y-coordinate

• Z-coordinate

• X-coordinate

If you have the ordered pair (3, -4), which direction do you move first?

• Up

• Down

• Left

• Right

For the ordered pair (-1, 6), which direction do you move for the y-coordinate?

• Up

• Down

• Left

• Right

What is the ordered pair for a point that is 2 units left and 5 units down from the origin?

• (2, 5)

• (-2, -5)

In which quadrant will both coordinates of an ordered pair be negative?

• Quadrant IV
