Question

8 choose the two true statements about the coordinate shown below: (7, - 2) a the 7 corresponds to the location of 7 on the x - axis b the 7 corresponds to the location of 7 on the y - axis c the -2 corresponds to the location of -2 on the x - axis d the -2 corresponds to the location of -2 on the y - axis

Explanation:

Step1: Recall coordinate - pair rules

In an ordered pair $(x,y)$, $x$ represents the horizontal (x - axis) position and $y$ represents the vertical (y - axis) position.

Step2: Analyze the given pair $(7, - 2)$

Here, $x = 7$ and $y=-2$. So, 7 corresponds to the location of 7 on the x - axis and - 2 corresponds to the location of - 2 on the y - axis.

Answer:

A. The 7 corresponds to the location of 7 on the x - axis
D. The - 2 corresponds to the location of - 2 on the y - axis
