Let’s solve this step by step.
We are working with a coordinate grid. Each point is labeled with a letter, and we need to match letters to ordered pairs (x, y), or write the ordered pair for a given letter.
Remember:
- The first number in an ordered pair is the
x-coordinate — how far right from zero.
- The second number is the
y-coordinate — how far up from zero.
---
Part 1: Tell what point is located at each ordered pair.
We look at the grid and find which letter sits at that exact spot.
1.
(5,8) → Go right 5, up 8 → That’s point
M
2.
(12,2) → Right 12, up 2 → That’s point
P
3.
(8,7) → Right 8, up 7 → That’s point
H
4.
(12,10) → Right 12, up 10 → That’s point
G
5.
(7,7) → Right 7, up 7 → That’s point
Q
6.
(0,10) → Right 0 (stay on y-axis), up 10 → That’s point
E
---
Part 2: Write the ordered pair for each given point.
Now we go to the letter on the grid and read its x and y values.
7.
N → It’s at x=1, y=1 →
(1,1)
8.
L → x=4, y=3 →
(4,3)
9.
J → x=11, y=1 →
(11,1)
10.
A → x=3, y=12 →
(3,12)
11.
B → x=0, y=4 →
(0,4)
12.
E → x=0, y=10 →
(0,10)
---
Part 3: Plot the following points on the coordinate grid.
This part asks you to draw them, but since we’re just answering, we’ll list where they go:
13.
S (6,11) → Right 6, up 11
14.
T (3,5) → Right 3, up 5
15.
U (9,12) → Right 9, up 12
*(Note: These aren’t already on the graph — you’d plot them if doing this on paper.)*

Final Answer:
1. M
2. P
3. H
4. G
5. Q
6. E
7. (1,1)
8. (4,3)
9. (11,1)
10. (3,12)
11. (0,4)
12. (0,10)
13. S goes at (6,11)
14. T goes at (3,5)
15. U goes at (9,12)
