Question

using the pencil, plot the point (2, 6).

Explanation:

Step1: Understand coordinate meaning

In a two - dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, the point is written as $(x,y)$. Here $x = 2$ and $y=6$.

Step2: Locate x - coordinate

Start at the origin $(0,0)$. Move 2 units to the right along the x - axis since $x = 2$.

Step3: Locate y - coordinate

From the position on the x - axis (where $x = 2$), move 6 units up along the y - axis since $y = 6$ and mark the point.

Answer:

The point $(2,6)$ is plotted on the given coordinate plane as shown in the reference image.
