In this lesson, you will learn how to graph points on the coordinate plane (xy plane). We will discuss ordered pairs, input and output tables, and how to take the coordinates of a point and plot the point on a coordinate grid. First, we locate the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate. The point is plotted at the intersection of these x and y coordinates along the x-axis and the y-axis. Once the points are graphed, we can connect the points using a straight line or a smooth curve. This lets us visualize what the data looks like and from this we can infer the real life situation that the graph represents.
