Question

consider the following.

\\(a(2, -5)\\)
\\(b(4, -3)\\)
\\(c(0, 1)\\)

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

$$
LATEXBLOCK2
$$

Plot point C

Using the Plotting Points knowledge point

$$
LATEXBLOCK3
$$

Answer:

To plot the given points on the coordinate plane:

• Point A \((2, -5)\): Start at the origin \((0,0)\), move \(2\) units to the right along the x-axis, and then move \(5\) units down parallel to the y-axis.
• Point B \((4, -3)\): Start at the origin \((0,0)\), move \(4\) units to the right along the x-axis, and then move \(3\) units down parallel to the y-axis.
• Point C \((0, 1)\): Start at the origin \((0,0)\), stay at \(0\) on the x-axis, and move \(1\) unit up along the y-axis.
