Coordinate Plane Parts

The rectangular coordinate system consists of the x-axis, y-axis, quadrants, and origin. The x-axis is horizontal, the y-axis is vertical, they intersect at the origin (0,0). The plane is divided into four quadrants.

Plotting Points

To plot points, move horizontally along the x-axis and vertically along the y-axis. The ordered pair (x, y) represents the point's location.

Linear Equation

A linear equation in two variables has the form ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are constants.

x and y Intercepts

The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis (y = 0). The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis (x = 0).

What are coordinates?

An ordered pair (x, y) that represents a point's position in the rectangular coordinate system. The first value (x) indicates the position on the x-axis, and the second value (y) indicates the position on the y-axis.

Study Notes

Rectangular Coordinate System

  • The rectangular coordinate system (also called the Cartesian coordinate system) uses two perpendicular lines called axes: the x-axis (horizontal) and the y-axis (vertical).
  • The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect is called the origin (0,0).
  • The axes divide the plane into four sections called quadrants.
  • Quadrant I: positive x-values, positive y-values
  • Quadrant II: negative x-values, positive y-values
  • Quadrant III: negative x-values, negative y-values
  • Quadrant IV: positive x-values, negative y-values

Plotting Points

  • A point on a coordinate plane is uniquely identified by an ordered pair of numbers (x, y).
  • The first number (x-coordinate) represents the horizontal position.
  • The second number (y-coordinate) represents the vertical position.
  • To plot a point on the coordinate plane, move horizontally according to the x-coordinate and vertically according to the y-coordinate.

Determining Quadrants

  • If x > 0 and y > 0, the point is in Quadrant I.
  • If x < 0 and y > 0, the point is in Quadrant II.
  • If x < 0 and y < 0, the point is in Quadrant III.
  • If x > 0 and y < 0, the point is in Quadrant IV.

Linear Equations

  • A linear equation in two variables has the form ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are constants, and a and b are not both zero.
  • The graph of a linear equation is a straight line.

Constructing Tables of Values

  • To create a table of values for a linear equation, choose values for x (or y) and calculate the corresponding y (or x) value.
  • Several points on the line are useful for accurately plotting the line graph.
  • Ensure the table has at least two points.

Graphing Linear Equations

  • Plot the points from the table of values on the coordinate plane.
  • Connect the points with a straight line.
  • This line represents the graph of the linear equation.

Intercepts, Domain, and Range

  • X-intercept: The point where the line crosses the x-axis (y = 0).
  • Y-intercept: The point where the line crosses the y-axis (x = 0).
  • Domain: The set of all possible x-values for the equation. For a linear equation, the domain is typically all real numbers.
  • Range: The set of all possible y-values for the equation. For a linear equation, the range is typically all real numbers.
