Graph: Points and Algebraic Relationships

Graph Points and Name the Quadrant

Graph and label S (–1, –5) on a coordinate plane.
Name the quadrant in which the point lies.

Start at the origin.

Move 1 unit left.

Then move 5 units down and
draw a dot.

Answer Point S is in Quadrant III.

Graph and label U(–2, 3) on a coordinate plane. Name
the quadrant in which the point lies.

Start at the origin.

Move 2 units left.

Then move 3 units up and
draw a dot.

Answer Point U is in Quadrant II.

Graph and label T(0, –3) on a coordinate plane. Name
the quadrant in which the point lies.

Start at the origin.

Since the x-coordinate is 0,
the point lies on the y-axis.

Move 3 units down and draw
a dot.

Answer Point T is not in any quadrant.
