Question

plot the points (-9, -10) and (8, -10). click on the graph to plot a point. click a point to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall coordinate - plotting rule

In a two - dimensional coordinate system $(x,y)$, the first value is the $x$ - coordinate and the second is the $y$ - coordinate.

Step2: Locate the first point

For the point $(-9,-10)$, move 9 units to the left of the origin (since $x=-9$) and 10 units down (since $y = - 10$) and mark the point.

Step3: Locate the second point

For the point $(8,-10)$, move 8 units to the right of the origin (since $x = 8$) and 10 units down (since $y=-10$) and mark the point.

Answer:

Plot the point $(-9,-10)$ 9 units left and 10 units down from the origin and the point $(8,-10)$ 8 units right and 10 units down from the origin on the given graph.
