Alright. First of all, look at the graph. Find the points where you find (-4,2). Which point is it? In order to graph, you have to go left or right, then up or down to find the point.

i dont understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Those are your quadrants.

So for the second question, look at the graph and find the where the points (-10,9) lie and see which of the four quadrants the point is in.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you understand how to find the points on the graph or do you need me to go over it for you?

OpenStudy (jordanloveangel):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not quite! That's close though! In order to find the correct points, go over then up. Like this: |dw:1417464862148:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Step One: Go Over To The Point It Ask (In This Case -4) Step Two: Go Up To The Next Point (In This Case 2) So which will your answer be?

OpenStudy (jordanloveangel):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct! :)

Points are written as x-y pairs in parentheses (x, y). To graph a point, first locate its position on the x-axis, then find its location on the y-axis and plot where these meet. The center point of the graph is called the "origin" and is written as the point (0, 0), because it is located at the zero point on the x-axis and the zero point on the y-axis. For example, to plot the point (3, -6), find the positive three on the x-axis and the -6 on the y-axis. Here is the example: http://prntscr.com/5c7bu7 Do you understand better now?
