Question

graph and label each point on the coordinate plane. l(-2, 0) m(5, 2) n(-4, -3) p(1, -1)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall coordinate - plane rules

In a coordinate plane, for a point $(x,y)$, $x$ is the horizontal (abscissa) and $y$ is the vertical (ordinate) distance from the origin $(0,0)$.

Step2: Plot point $L(-2,0)$

Since $y = 0$, the point $L$ lies on the $x$-axis. Move 2 units to the left of the origin along the $x$-axis and mark the point $L$.

Step3: Plot point $M(5,2)$

Move 5 units to the right along the $x$-axis and 2 units up along the $y$-axis from the origin and mark the point $M$.

Step4: Plot point $N(-4,-3)$

Move 4 units to the left along the $x$-axis and 3 units down along the $y$-axis from the origin and mark the point $N$.

Step5: Plot point $P(1,-1)$

Move 1 unit to the right along the $x$-axis and 1 unit down along the $y$-axis from the origin and mark the point $P$.

Answer:

The points $L(-2,0)$, $M(5,2)$, $N(-4,-3)$ and $P(1,-1)$ are plotted on the coordinate - plane as described above.
