Question

a lily pad is located at point m (3,3) in the pond. a frog is 2 units east and 3 units north what ordered pair represents the frogs location

Answer 1

We will be identifying the location of a point in a plane (like a piece of paper or map) by first constructing two number lines called axes.

To make things easier for us, we will be drawing the axes perpendicular to each other (at 90 angles).

One axis will be drawn horizontally and labeled as the x-axis.

The other will be drawn vertically and labeled as the y-axis.

We will intersect these axes at the point where zero is located on each of them (as shown below).

We will refer to this point of intersection as the origin and give it coordinates (0,0), since the number zero will be the reference number on each axis

Explanation:

For every point in the plane, we will identify the location using an ordered pair of the form (x,y).

The first coordinate, the x-coordinate, will refer to the number which corresponds with the point's horizontal location as determined by the number on the x-axis. (The x-coordinate is somewhat like the east-west number.)

The second coordinate, the y-coordinate, will refer to the number which corresponds with the point's vertical location as determined by the number on the y-axis. (The y-coordinate is somewhat like the north-south number.)

We will always be writing the ordered pairs with the x-coordinate first and the y-coordinate second.

Tip

Quadrant I: Both x and y-coordinate are positive.

Quadrant II: x-coordinate is negative and y-coordinate is positive.

Quadrant III: Both x and y-coordinate are negative.

Quadrant IV: x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is negative.

The coordinates are always placed inside parentheses with a comma separating the x-coordinate from the y-coordinate.

Notice that a point on the x-axis will always have a y-coordinate of zero. A point on the y-axis will always have an x-coordinate of zero.

Instructions: In the figure above, the point with coordinates (4,2) is located in quadrant I. The point with coordinates (-3,4) is located in quadrant II. The point with coordinates (-4,0) is located on the x-axis. The point with coordinates (0, -5) is located on the y-axis. Determine the quadrant for the following ordered pairs.
