Using the image above, how would you describe the following coordinate?
(4, 6, -5)

Answer 1

Miracrown is already here my job is done

Answer 2

Miracrown is not even helping! Too busy chatting with buddies!

Answer 3

Then summon the crown

Answer 4

LOL. Hello. I was AFK. Are you supposed to answer by plotting the point? Or by giving directions like up, right, back?

Answer 5

I can help you with either :)

Answer 6

@Miracrown That is the point... I dont really know what the teacher is asking for? It just asks me how would you describe the following coordinate? which is (4, 6, -5)

Answer 7

by looking at the graph I attached

Answer 8

Correct, I was going to walk you through this in three steps. We need to describe where the point is along the x-axis, along the y-axis and along the z-axis in order to completely describe where the point is located.

Answer 9

@DullJackel09 LOL xD The crown has arrived (thumbs up ;)

Answer 10

@Miracrown All right, go ahead.

Answer 11

So along the x-axis we want to be able to say the point is ___ units left/right.
Would our point be to the left or to the right on the x-axis?

Answer 12

I think four units and to the right on the x axis??

Answer 13

We are working with the point (4,6,-5). The x-coordinate is 4. When we look at the x-axis we see negative values to the left and positive values to the right. So our point is 4 units to the right. You're right! :)

Answer 14

What is the y-coordinate?

Answer 15

6

Answer 16

Yep!

Answer 17

So how would you describe where the point is along the y-axis?

Answer 18

It looks like it is on the top part of the graph, so left??? i dont know..

Answer 19

The y-axis is going up and down.

Answer 20

oh okay, then up.

Answer 21

So would it be 6 units up or 6 units down?

Answer 22

6 units up

Answer 23

Correct! The positive numbers are going up and the negative numbers are going down.

Answer 24

Last part... what is the z-coordinate?

Answer 25

it is -5

Answer 26

Yes! Now the z-axis is going forward and backward. Which direction would our point go?

Answer 27

Backwards, right? Since its negative 5. So now you can put all three parts together to describe where the point would be located.

Answer 28

Remember to describe where the point is, you describe a direction for each coordinate.

Answer 29

yeah it is backwards

Answer 30

Sorry, plo

Answer 31

So, what is the answer to the question?

Answer 32

You tell me

Answer 33

Put all three parts together to describe where the point would be located.

Answer 34

4 units to the right on the x axis, 6 units up on the y axis, and 5 units backwards on the z axis. Is this the answer the teacher was looking for?

Answer 35

Yes, I think so. So the point is 4 units to the right, 6 units up, and 5 units back. :^)

Answer 36

That is it?

Answer 37

Yes m8

Answer 38

Good luck!

Answer 39

Wow, that was so easy!!! xD Thanks Miracrown
