Explanation:
We need to find the coordinates of each labeled point on the coordinate grid. Remember:
- The
x-coordinate (first number) tells how far left or right from the origin (0,0). Right is positive, left is negative.
- The
y-coordinate (second number) tells how far up or down. Up is positive, down is negative.
Let’s locate each point one by one:
Point A:
- It’s at x = 3 (3 units right of 0)
- y = –2 (2 units down)
→ A = (3, –2)
Point B:
- x = –6 (6 left)
- y = 3 (3 up)
→ B = (–6, 3)
Point C:
- x = –8 (8 left)
- y = 7 (7 up)
→ C = (–8, 7)
Point D:
- x = 4 (4 right)
- y = 1 (1 up)
→ D = (4, 1)
Point E:
- x = 2 (2 right)
- y = –3 (3 down)
→ E = (2, –3)
Point F:
- x = –5 (5 left)
- y = 2 (2 up)
→ F = (–5, 2)
Point G:
- x = –8 (8 left)
- y = –4 (4 down)
→ G = (–8, –4)
Point H:
- x = –6 (6 left)
- y = –5 (5 down)
→ H = (–6, –5)
Point I:
- x = 1 (1 right)
- y = –9 (9 down)
→ I = (1, –9)
Point J:
- x = 4 (4 right)
- y = 8 (8 up)
→ J = (4, 8)
Point K:
- x = 6 (6 right)
- y = 9 (9 up)
→ K = (6, 9)
Point L:
- x = 5 (5 right)
- y = –5 (5 down)
→ L = (5, –5)
Let me double-check a few to be sure:
- Point H: left 6, down 5 → (–6, –5)
✔
- Point I: right 1, down 9 → (1, –9)
✔
- Point L: right 5, down 5 → (5, –5)
✔
All look correct.
Final Answer:
A = (3, –2)
B = (–6, 3)
C = (–8, 7)
D = (4, 1)
E = (2, –3)
F = (–5, 2)
G = (–8, –4)
H = (–6, –5)
I = (1, –9)
J = (4, 8)
K = (6, 9)
L = (5, –5)
