Graph on a Coordinate Plane

A coordinate plane is a grid divided into four quadrants by both a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. Coordinate points can be located on the grid using ordered pairs. Ordered pairs are given in the form of (x,y). The x represents the location of the point on the horizontal x-axis, and the y represents the location of the point on the vertical y-axis. The x-axis and y-axis intersect at the origin, which is coordinate point (0,0).
