Question

consider the following.

\\(a(5, 4)\\)
\\(b(1, 0)\\)

step 1 of 2: plot the given points on the graph.

Explanation:

Identify the given coordinates

Using the Cartesian Coordinates knowledge point

$$
LATEXBLOCK0
$$

Plot point A

Using the Plotting Points knowledge point

$$
LATEXBLOCK1
$$

Plot point B

Using the Plotting Points knowledge point

$$
LATEXBLOCK2
$$

Answer:

To plot the given points on the coordinate plane:

• Point A \( (5, 4) \): Start at the origin \((0,0)\). Move \(5\) units to the right along the horizontal \(x\)-axis, then move \(4\) units straight up parallel to the vertical \(y\)-axis. Place the point at this intersection.
• Point B \( (1, 0) \): Start at the origin \((0,0)\). Move \(1\) unit to the right along the horizontal \(x\)-axis. Since the \(y\)-coordinate is \(0\), do not move up or down; place the point directly on the \(x\)-axis.
