Coordinate Grid: Plotting Pairs in a Coordinate Plane
The graphic above is a close up of quadrant I of a coordinate plane. What is the horizontal (back and forth) axis called?
The graphic above is a close up of quadrant 1 of a coordinate plane. What is the vertical (up and down) axis called?
If you were naming the coordinates of a point in this quadrant, which number would you put first, the x-coordinate or the y-coordinate?
Use the coordinate plane below to answer the questions that follow
[size=150][b][color=#0000ff]Choose the correct coordinates for each point given:[/color][/b][/size]
[b][color=#ff0000][size=150]What are the coordinates of point W?[/size][/color][/b]
[b][color=#ff0000][size=150]What are the coordinates of point X?[/size][/color][/b]
[b][color=#ff0000][size=150]What are the coordinates of point Y?[/size][/color][/b]
[b][color=#ff0000][size=150]What are the coordinates of point Z?[/size][/color][/b]
What ordered pair does the origin represent?
