Question

problems 1–6: here is a coordinate plane

1. write the coordinates of each point in the table.

table: point (v, w, x, y, z); coordinates (handwritten: 3,2; -1,4; -4,4; 3,-3; -5,0)

1. plot and label point a at (-2, 1)
2. plot and label point p at (1, -2)
3. plot two points that are each 2 units away from point v. label each point with its coordinates.
4. point q is more than 3 units directly to the left of point y. write at least one thing you know about the coordinates of point q
5. draw the first letter of your name on the coordinate plane so that at least part of your drawing is in each quadrant.

two coordinate plane images: one with points v, w, x, y, z; another for problem 6

Explanation:

Problem 1: Write the coordinates of each point

Step 1: Determine coordinates of V

From the graph, point V is 4 units right on x - axis and 2 units up on y - axis. So coordinates of V are $(4, 2)$.

Step 2: Determine coordinates of W

Point W is 2 units left on x - axis (since x=- 2) and 4 units up on y - axis. So coordinates of W are $(-2, 4)$.

Step 3: Determine coordinates of X

Point X is 5 units left on x - axis (x = - 5) and 5 units down on y - axis (y=-5). So coordinates of X are $(-5, - 5)$.

Step 4: Determine coordinates of Y

Point Y is 3 units right on x - axis (x = 3) and 3 units down on y - axis (y=-3). So coordinates of Y are $(3, - 3)$.

Step 5: Determine coordinates of Z

Point Z is 5 units left on x - axis (x=-5) and on y - axis (y = 0). So coordinates of Z are $(-5, 0)$.

Step 1: Locate x - coordinate

For point A(-2, 1), the x - coordinate is - 2. So move 2 units to the left of the origin (0,0) along the x - axis.

Step 2: Locate y - coordinate

The y - coordinate is 1. Move 1 unit up from the x=-2 position along the y - axis. Then label the point as A.

Step 1: Locate x - coordinate

For point P(1, - 2), the x - coordinate is 1. Move 1 unit to the right of the origin along the x - axis.

Step 2: Locate y - coordinate

The y - coordinate is - 2. Move 2 units down from the x = 1 position along the y - axis. Then label the point as P.

Answer:

Point	Coordinates
W	(-2, 4)
X	(-5, -5)
Y	(3, -3)
Z	(-5, 0)

Problem 2: Plot and label point A at (-2, 1)
