Exploring Graphing on the Coordinate Plane

Mrs. Rupert introduces graphing on the coordinate plane, explaining key concepts such as the x-axis, y-axis, origin, and quadrants. She provides definitions and demonstrates how to plot points using coordinates. The video includes examples and encourages students to practice plotting points and identifying quadrants.

What is the coordinate plane?

• A one-dimensional line

• A two-dimensional plane formed by two number lines

• A single point in space

• A three-dimensional space

Which axis is the horizontal number line?

• Z-axis

• W-axis

• X-axis

• Y-axis

Where do the x and y axes intersect?

• At (1,1)

• At (1,0)

• At (0,0)

• At (0,1)

Which quadrant is represented by positive x and positive y values?

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant IV

• Quadrant I

In which quadrant are both x and y values negative?

• Quadrant III

If a point has coordinates (5, -3), in which direction do you move on the x-axis?

• Up

• Left

• Down

• Right

For the point (5, -3), how do you move on the y-axis?
