How to Plot a Point (x, y):

To plot a point on the coordinate plane:
1. Start at the origin (0, 0).
2. Move horizontally along the x-axis:
- If x is positive, move right.
- If x is negative, move left.
3. Then move vertically along the y-axis:
- If y is positive, move up.
- If y is negative, move down.
4. Mark the point at that location.

Step-by-step plotting of each point:

#### a) A(-7, -4)
- Move 7 units left from origin (x = -7)
- Then 4 units down (y = -4)
- Plot point A at (-7, -4)

#### b) B(-10, -9)
- Move 10 units left (x = -10)
- Then 9 units down (y = -9)
- Plot B at (-10, -9)

#### c) P(-3, 7)
- Move 3 units left (x = -3)
- Then 7 units up (y = 7)
- Plot P at (-3, 7)

#### d) Z(9, -5)
- Move 9 units right (x = 9)
- Then 5 units down (y = -5)
- Plot Z at (9, -5)

#### e) X(6, 8)
- Move 6 units right (x = 6)
- Then 8 units up (y = 8)
- Plot X at (6, 8)

#### f) R(-9, -6)
- Move 9 units left (x = -9)
- Then 6 units down (y = -6)
- Plot R at (-9, -6)

#### g) Q(-4, -4)
- Move 4 units left (x = -4)
- Then 4 units down (y = -4)
- Plot Q at (-4, -4)

#### h) Y(5, -8)
- Move 5 units right (x = 5)
- Then 8 units down (y = -8)
- Plot Y at (5, -8)

#### i) W(4, 10)
- Move 4 units right (x = 4)
- Then 10 units up (y = 10)
- Plot W at (4, 10)

#### j) K(7, 4)
- Move 7 units right (x = 7)
- Then 4 units up (y = 4)
- Plot K at (7, 4)

#### k) D(3, 2)
- Move 3 units right (x = 3)
- Then 2 units up (y = 2)
- Plot D at (3, 2)

#### l) J(0, -3)
- x = 0 → stay on the y-axis
- Move 3 units down (y = -3)
- Plot J at (0, -3) — this lies directly on the y-axis

✔ Final Step:

Now go to the grid and mark each point accordingly using a dot or an "X" and label it with its letter.

---

📌 Tips for Accuracy:

- Use a ruler to help align your points.
- Double-check signs: negative means left/down; positive means right/up.
- The order is always (x, y), so first horizontal, then vertical.

Since I can't draw directly on the image, here’s how you should proceed:

1. Grab a pencil and paper (or use the provided grid).
2. Follow the steps above for each point.
3. Label each point clearly with its letter.

✔ All points are now plotted correctly based on their coordinates.

Let me know if you'd like a visual description of where each point falls!
