I'll solve this coordinate grid problem step by step.
Let me find the coordinates for each item by looking at where they are on the grid:
Reading the grid:
- The x-axis goes left to right (horizontal)
- The y-axis goes bottom to top (vertical)
- Coordinates are written as (x, y)
Finding each item:
1)
Dolphin - Already given as (1, 7) ✓
2)
Sandcastle - Looking at the sandcastle with a flag:
- x-coordinate: 7
- y-coordinate: 6
- Answer: (7, 6)
3)
Chest - Looking at the treasure chest:
- x-coordinate: -1
- y-coordinate: 5
- Answer: (-1, 5)
4)
Bucket - Looking at the yellow bucket:
- x-coordinate: -6
- y-coordinate: 1
- Answer: (-6, 1)
5)
Fish - Looking at the yellow fish:
- x-coordinate: -4
- y-coordinate: -6
- Answer: (-4, -6)
6)
Starfish - Looking at the blue starfish:
- x-coordinate: 5
- y-coordinate: -5
- Answer: (5, -5)
7)
Seahorse - Looking at the pink seahorse:
- x-coordinate: -7
- y-coordinate: -2
- Answer: (-7, -2)
8)
Crab - Looking at the orange crab:
- x-coordinate: 5
- y-coordinate: 0
- Answer: (5, 0)
9)
Ice cream - Looking at the ice cream cone:
- x-coordinate: 1
- y-coordinate: -7
- Answer: (1, -7)
10)
Life ring - Looking at the red life ring:

- y-coordinate: 7
- Answer: (-7, 7)
Final Answer:
1) Dolphin (1, 7)
2) Sandcastle (7, 6)
3) Chest (-1, 5)
4) Bucket (-6, 1)
5) Fish (-4, -6)
