Graphing Data on Coordinate Grids

What does the x-axis represent in the plant growth graph?

• Amount of water given

• Width of the plant

• Time in days

• Height in centimeters

What is the correct way to plot the point (1, 4) on the graph?

• 1 right, 4 up

• 4 right, 1 up

• 1 up, 4 right

• 4 up, 1 right

Which ordered pair represents the plant's height on the third day?

• (10, 5)

• (8, 3)

• (3, 8)

• (5, 10)

What does the first number in an ordered pair typically indicate on a coordinate grid?

• Size of the point

• Color of the point

• Vertical movement

• Horizontal movement

What does the green arrow demonstrate in the context of graphing?

• Method to erase a point

• Direction to plot x-value

• Method to select a point

• Direction to plot y-value

Why is the y-axis labeled 'height (centimeters)'?

• It represents time

• It represents growth rate

• It represents temperature

• It represents height

How do you connect the points on the graph?

• Using a ruler

• Using a compass

• Using a protractor

• Freehand

What does the ordered pair (9, 14) represent in the context of the plant growth?

• Height on the ninth day

• Fourteenth plant's height

• Height on the fourteenth day

• Ninth plant's height
