Thank you

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

The origin is where the x and y axis cross. It is the point (0,0) |dw:1411112938142:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

this is your starting point so to speak whenever you plot any point

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Point E is 3 units to the left of the origin and 2 units up. so we start at (0,0) and go 3 units to the left on the x axis |dw:1411112983004:dw|
