Plot and Label Points

The sailing club’s supply boat is using a coordinate grid to find floating markers. For each ordered pair (x, y), move horizontally along the x-axis first, then vertically along the y-axis. Label plotted points with their letter.

Read the Grid

Draw a coordinate plane in the box below with both axes labeled from -6 to 6. Each grid step is 1 unit.

1.On an ordered pair (x, y), what does the x-coordinate tell you?
  • How far to move left or right
  • How far to move up or down
  • The name of the point
2.What is the ordered pair for the origin, where the axes cross?
3.Malik plots a buoy at (-4, 3). Starting at the origin, which direction does he move first, and how many units?
4.Plot and label the club’s six markers on the coordinate plane you drew: A (3, 4), B (-2, 5), C (0, -3), D (-4, -1), E (5, 0), and F (2, -4).
5.Which marker is in Quadrant II (upper left)?
6.Which two markers lie on an axis rather than in a quadrant?
7.Marker A is at (3, 4). If it moves 3 units left and does not move up or down, what are its new coordinates?
8.Explain how to plot a marker at (-3, 2), including the direction and distance for each move.
9.Caleb says the point (2, -5) is in Quadrant IV. Is he correct? Explain briefly.
10.A marker is 4 units left of the y-axis and 2 units below the x-axis. Write its ordered pair.
