Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to plot points or identify coordinates on the coordinate plane.

1. Plot the following points on the coordinate plane below:

A (3, 4)

B (-2, 5)

C (0, -3)

D (4, -1)

E (-5, 0)

2. Write the coordinates for each point plotted on the graph below:

Point F: ( )

Point G: ( )

Point H: ( )

Point J: ( )

3. In which quadrant would the point (-6, 2) be located?

Quadrant I

Quadrant II

Quadrant III

Quadrant IV

4. The horizontal axis on the coordinate plane is called the -axis.

5. The vertical axis on the coordinate plane is called the -axis.

6. The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect is called the .

7. Describe how you would plot the point (5, -3) on a coordinate plane.
