Question

14 multiple choice 1 point
which is the graph of the points ( x ( 5, 3 ) ), ( y ( 4, 2 ) ) and ( z ( 3, 1 ) )?

Explanation:

Step1: Understand coordinate system

In a coordinate system, for a point \((x,y)\), \(x\) is the horizontal (abscissa) and \(y\) is the vertical (ordinate) value.

Step2: Analyze point \(X(5,3)\)

For \(X(5,3)\), move \(5\) units to the right along the \(x -\)axis and \(3\) units up along the \(y -\)axis.

Step3: Analyze point \(Y(4,2)\)

For \(Y(4,2)\), move \(4\) units to the right along the \(x -\)axis and \(2\) units up along the \(y -\)axis.

Step4: Analyze point \(Z(3,1)\)

For \(Z(3,1)\), move \(3\) units to the right along the \(x -\)axis and \(1\) unit up along the \(y -\)axis.

Answer:

The second - option (the graph where \(X\) is at \((5,3)\), \(Y\) is at \((4,2)\) and \(Z\) is at \((3,1)\) in the positive \(x\) and \(y\) regions) is the correct graph.
