Quadrants & Signs
This quadrant contains points where both the x-value and y-value are positive.
👉 What is Quadrant I?
The mathematical name for a point written as (x,y).
👉 What is an ordered pair?
This axis runs left and right across the coordinate plane.
👉 What is the x-axis?
The point where a line crosses the y-axis.
👉 What is the y-intercept?
This equation form is written as y=mx+b.
👉 What is slope-intercept form?
A point in this quadrant has a negative x-value and a positive y-value.
👉 What is Quadrant II?
This is part of the ordered pair called the abscissa.
👉 What is the x-coordinate?
This axis runs up and down on the coordinate plane.
👉 What is the y-axis?
The point where a line crosses the x-axis.
👉 What is the x-intercept?
This form of a linear equation is written as y2−y1=m(x2−x1).
👉 What is point-slope form?
If a point is written as (+,−), it lies in this quadrant.
👉 What is Quadrant IV?
This term refers to the y-value of an ordered pair.
👉 What is the ordinate?
A point located at (4,0) lies on this axis.
👉 What is the x-axis?
A line crosses the y-axis at (0,5). This point is the line’s _____.
👉 What is the y-intercept?
This standard equation form is written as Ax+By=C.
👉 What is standard form?
A point where both x and y are negative is located in this quadrant.
👉 What is Quadrant III?
This point is located at (0,0) on the coordinate plane.
👉 What is the origin?
Any point with a y-value of zero lies on this axis.
👉 What is the x-axis?
If a line crosses the x-axis at (3,0), that point is called the _____.
👉 What is the x-intercept?
In the equation y=mx+b,
the letter b represents this value.
👉 What is the y-intercept?
A point has x < 0 and y < 0. Name the quadrant where this point must be located.
👉 What is Quadrant III?
In the ordered pair (x,y), the first value is the abscissa and the second value is the _____.
👉 What is the ordinate?
A point that lies on the y-axis must have this x-value.
👉 What is zero?
Which intercept always has an x-value of zero?
