Question

Select the option that shows the correct plotting of the following coordinates:
(1, 2), (3, 3), and (4, 1)

Answer 1

To plot a point $(x,y)$ on the coordinate plane, we first travel as many units to the right of the origin on the $x-$axis as the x-coordinate, $x$.
On reaching x on the $x-$axis, we travel upwards in the direction of the $y-$axis until we reach the $y-$coordinate, $y$.


To draw (1, 2), start from the origin, move 1 unit to the right on the $x-$axis, followed by 2 units vertically up along the y-axis.
To draw (3, 3), start from the origin, move 3 units right, and then 3 units up.
To draw (4, 1), start from the origin, move 4 units right, and then 1 unit up.
The graph is matching with graph A.
So, option A is correct.
